In den WarenkorbZustand: Very Good+. dj. First Edition. First edition, first printing. viii, 100. Bound in publisher's plain stiff wraps in original pictorial Japon jacket. Very Good+ with heavy toning and light soiling to jacket, small chips to jacket corners, and offsetting from jacket folds to facing pages. Penciled bookseller inscriptions a…nd elegantly unreadable signatures to verso of front cover and facing page. Light scattered foxing throughout, confined chiefly to margins. An uncommonly good copy of this rare and fragile book. Abbott's early science fiction novella satirized Victorian social hierarchy while teaching higher dimensional geometry, introducing some aspects of Albert Einstein's theories of relativity while Einstein himself was still a small boy. First published November 1884 in a small print run, the book has remained an underground favorite ever since.
