Fleming's own copy (signed, without jacket), sold for £3000 [Sotheby's, 22/9/23, lot 3] A text on eugenics and human conditioning, developed largely by Sir Francis Galton, whom Fleming also read (See Lilliy Library catalogue, item 23, Galton's Finger Prints). Fleming's book collection also included Darwin's Origin of Species, Gobineau's Race Inequality, Pavlov's Conditioned Reflexes, Hitler's Mein Kampf, Braid's Neurypnology [Memsmerism], Binet's Intelligence, Mendel's Heredity, Thornton's Over-Population, Davies On Evils, and Sorel On Violence.

Conditioning is also a trait in the film series; see Live and Let Die (forced heroin addiction), Moonraker (pursuit of a master race), No Time To Die (DNA targeting) [Gilbert]. Signed.…
