194043704London: George Allen and Unwin Ltd 1940. First Edition. Octavo 24cm.; publisher's cloth in cream dust jacket printed in green; 475pp.; photographic portrait frontispiece. Light chipping to jacket extremities shallow tear at bottom of pp. 9/10 not approaching text else a Very Good or better copy in the scarce jacket. Posthumously published and unfinished sequel to the author's "Sex and Culture" 1934. The later text attempts to answer the question as put by Huxley in his introduction "What are the conditions which must be fulfilled if a society is to go on displaying maximum energy for an indefinite period" p. 17. Thus does Unwin describe a Utopia in which sex is made available by two forms of marriage monogamous and polygamous which citizens can choose and change at will. This way: "The rulers of the world are made free by this structure to focus on the maintenance of a sustainable state" www.sf-encyclopedia.com. Ultimately however Unwin argues that the most advanced societies are those that strictly adhere to monogamy sexual freedom depleting the civilization's energy. BROMER B.59.1.

194315767Berkeley CA 1943-1947. First Edition. Wraps. Very good . 16mo. Top-bound spiral notebook approx. 5.75 x 3.75 inches penned rectos only in a neat legible hand. Very good or better with some minor toning. Else clean sound and remarkably well-preserved. <br/><br/>Original holograph notebook recording the mating rituals of an unnamed high school and college student during WWII. A sort of account book of the loves and losses of a young man from 1943 to 1947 the notebook meticulously notes girls’ names contact information what they did on the dates movies seen diners visited parties attended etc. and a brief assessment of each date “enjoyable” “she likes to talk” “never enjoyed dancing so much” “no comment” “alright” “it’s slow but sure”. This teenage Casanova was almost certainly a University of California student he has a car which he regularly parks on the Berkeley campus. The diary documents a stream of girls and a large part of the text describes the rise and fall of an extended romance with “Marilyn.” For example: “If we were a bit older one would say that we’re engaged.” And: “Undoubtedly she’d have enjoyed herself more with a trained dog — which I’m not!” And eventually: “At long last the embers have turned black!” The diary concludes on Sept. 12 1946 when the author is 19 years old and closes somewhat philosophically: “Thus I end this the first report on girls that I know or in many cases have known. I close with the realization that my search is not yet over. And so I look forward to new faces and new loves.” One of the more remarkable vernacular histories we've encountered a fascinating look at romantic mores during the sociological dawn of the Teenager. paperback books
