BY BERTRAND RUSSELL Power Cr. 8vo. Seventh Impression 125. 6d. net. "The essential value of this most intelligent book is that it provides us with a corrective against extremes. ... I urge all those who at this moment are suffering from defeatism to read this book carefully. It appears to me to start at the point where many of us have abandoned political theory in despair. It provides a new hope." The Daily Telegraph (HAROLD NICOLSON). "For one reason or another everyone, it seems to me, will have to read what Mr. Bertrand Russell has to say about power. His book is in escapable." The Observer (BASIL DE SEI.INCOURT). "This great book . . . this brilliant book, one of the most stimulating as well as one of the most horrifying, that I have read for some time. The horror is in the subject matter; the stimulus in its treatment." New Statesman and Nation, The Conquest of Happiness Cr. 8vo Eleventh Impression I2S. 6d. net "Beautifully planned and written. . . . The author knows just what he wants to say, and says it brilliantly. ... A definitely helpful book."- Spectator . "He writes what he call? common sense, but it is in fact uncommon wisdom . " Observer. "I confess to having found it unusually stimulating." MAX PLOWMAN in the Adelphi. Marriage and Morals o Cr. 8vo Eleventh Impression gs. 6d. net "An audacious and provocative book, in which truths are spiced with half-truths, and Mr. Russell s scepticism and his dogmatism wage their familiar conflict."

"Highly controversial, but always interesting." Time and Tide.
