Title: STRANGE ARE THE WAYS OF LOVE
Author: Evans, Lesley; Block, Lawrence
Seller: Brian Cassidy Bookseller at Type Punch Matrix (United States)
Condition: Fine.
Description: Greenwich, CT: Crest / Fawcett Publications, Inc, 1959. First edition. Fine.. First printing of Lawrence Block's first published novel, the derivative but accomplished product of the 19-year-old author's studious reading of "every other lesbian novel I could lay my hands on." Nearly out of his teens and desperate to publish a novel, Block temporarily laid aside detective fiction to produce this sad story of an Indiana girl in Greenwich Village, longing for "the beautiful Lesbian who could bring her the pleasure she wanted but was afraid to accept." In a memoir of his writing career, Block explains the novel's genesis: "The sensitive novel of female homosexuality was a popular category in the fifties and I suspect I read the books more for information and titillation than anything else. [...] I sat down and wrote the thing start to finish in two weeks flat, finishing four days before my twentieth birthday. It sold to Fawcett, the first publisher to see it, and I was a published novelist just like that." 7'' x 4.25''. Original pictorial wrappers by Barye Phillips. Crest s336. 144 pages. Very slight edgewear, faint vertical crease to front cover.

Title: (1960 2-Volume Set) A History of the Warfare of Science with Technology in Christendom, Complete in Two Volumes
Author: White, Andrew Dickson
Seller: Underground Books, ABAA (United States)
Condition: Good
Description: New York: Dover Publications, Inc, 1960. First Dover Edition, First Thus. Paperback. Good. First Dover Edition, First Thus. Paperback. 8" X 5 1/4". Wear to pictorial paper wraps with rubbing, toning, and creasing to covers, corners, and edges. Ink marks to front covers. Sunning to spines. Pages of both volumes are clean and unmarked. Bindings are firm and sound. A presentable, complete 1960s paperback set, the first printing of this Dover edition. ABOUT THIS BOOK: Andrew D. White (1832-1918), historian, diplomat, and first president of Cornell University, advocated such progressive causes as equal rights for women and the removal of religious sectarianism from higher education. In this important work, which spawned a great deal of controversy at its appearance, White exhaustively documents the battle between science and religion in matters of creation versus evolution, the geocentric versus the heliocentric universe, and the "fall of man" versus anthropology. The struggle of science over outmoded medieval concepts is still emerging. Even a century after its publication, White's great work has much to teach us about the dangerous effects of religious doctrinalism on education and moral growth.(Publisher).
