Soft cover. Zustand: Fair / Good. Reprint. Reprint. Paperback. 19.5 × 13.5cm, 145pp. This copy was owned and signed by Graeme Shankland (1917-1984), an architect, town planner, and Communist who didn't care too much for the old Victorian townscapes, but created enormous programmes of renewal in 'outworn' Victorian city centres (his plan for Liverpool was apparently incredibly brutal, earning him the sobriquet 'the Butcher of Liverpool' from fellow architects and conservationists. He also drew up plans for Hook in Hampshire, but local opposition successfully thwarted these plans.This 1944 edition of Fundamental Problems of Marxism presents the final major work of G.V. Plekhanov, the man widely regarded as the 'Father of Russian Marxism.' While Plekhanov eventually became a political rival to Lenin (siding with the Mensheviks), his theoretical brilliance was so undeniable that Lenin famously insisted one could not become a 'real Communist' without studying him. This specific volume serves as a high-level defense of dialectical materialism against the 'vulgar' interpretations of the time. Interestingly, when the first edition was published in 1908, it was given a deliberately dry, academic title to sneak past the Tsar's censors - a ruse that worked so well it became a foundational text for the very revolutionaries who would eventually topple the monarchy. Condition: Fair condition. The covers are tanned to the edges and bumped to the spine. There is some creasing to the the pages but it remains in good readable condition. Signed by notable previous own.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The development of the modern organic insecticides has contri buted a major chapter to the history of neurotoxicants. From their roots in the organochlorines and organophosphates discovered prior to and during the Second World War, to the carbamates developed in the 1950's, and most recently to the extremely potent and promising synthetic pyrethroids, the most important organic insecticides have been those whose wite of action lies within the nervous system. In this regard, man is only mimicking nature in attacking the nervous system with lethal intent since potent neurotoxins are cornmon compo nents of the venoms with which animals of all types defend themselves and subdue their prey. This central role of the nervous sytem as a broad target for pesticides may also be projected into the future - a prediction to which this volume is devoted. The nervous system in its diversity is likely to be of central concern to those charged with discovering novel pesticides whether they be modifications of familiar chemical groups or structurally novel neurotoxicants such as the nitromethyl ene insecticides described here. On a second front, the ability to influence insect behavior through the nervous system will become increasingly important in pest management. Pheromones represent one obvious example of this; recent work described in this volume indi cates that the forrnamidine pesticides may represent another.
