First edition, first impression. viii, 184pp. Blue cloth-covered boards; gilt titles on spine. 12mo. Sun-faded spine, with reader's crease. Lightly rubbed on all edges, rounded at corners and spine ends. Dusty top text block edge, remaining edges just starting to fox and tan. Endpapers tanned, starting to fox. Hinges stretched at endpapers. Pen markings on front free endpaper and rear pastedown, otherwise, internally neat, clean, bright and tight. Written during World War II, Stapledon projects two separate futures for humanity, depending not on the outcome of the war but on the failure or success of a future 'Tibetan Renaissance' to influence the temper and ideology of the militaristic Russian and Chinese empires that threaten it.
