Description
Moscow: Pravda, 1948. Softcover. First edition; 5 1/2 x 8 1/2; pp. 14; stapled printed wraps; minor rubbing to tips of spine; very good or better. Vsesoiuznoe Obshchestvo po Rasprostraneniiu Politicheskikh i Nauchnykh Znanii (The All-Union Society for the Dissemination of Political and Scientific Knowledge) replaced the League of Militant Atheists, also called The Union of the Godless, in 1947. The League had been formed in 1925, by the Communist Party, as an atheistic and anti-religious organization of common workers and intelligentsia. In 1947 the Society commenced publishing journals and propaganda materials and it sponsored lectures, demonstrations and parades. Dedicated to eradicating religious beliefs and promoting science and knowledge, the public lectures were diligently recorded and printed (example of which is the current one) in a pamphlet form occasionally with numerous illustrations. The topics covered medicine, scientific discoveries, Communist leaders’ works and speeches, history, notable names, anti-Imperialist propaganda, etc. In 1963 the organization was yet again renamed to ‘Znanie’ (Knowledge) and it is still in existence today. Nervous system; nerve signal transmission.

Description
New York: Cosmopolitan Book Corporation. Good. 1931. First Edition. Hardcover. (no dust jacket) [shelfworn copy, front hinge cracked but not separated, light bumping/fraying at several extremities, slight exposure of boards at bottom corners, fading to cloth along edges of covers and at the spine, one-time owner's pencil signature on half-title page]. A screwball comedy in book form by the author of "Merton of the Movies," about a French prince who comes incognito to Hollywood, where he meets Stella, who is posing as a New York heiress but might also be a French (or possibly English) noblewoman. Wackiness ensues. Although Wilson himself never worked in Hollywood, he was at the forefront of American humor writing in the early decades of the twentieth century, and several of his earlier novels had been adapted for the screen (including "Merton," "Ruggles of Red Gap," and "Oh, Doctor!"). This novel, however, was both later and lesser than his best work; Hollywood novels bibliographer Anthony Slide observes that it "liberally borrows ideas from 'Merton of the Movies'," and that "despite the reference to talkies, the basic story belongs to a decade earlier." It also proved to be the last of Wilson's novels to be published during his lifetime, as the following year he was severely injured in a car accident. (He died in 1939.) .
