Description:
Garden City NY: Anchor Press/Doubleday. Very Good+ in Very Good dj. 1982. First Edition. Hardcover. [minor shelfwear, a couple of diagonally-creased upper page corners toward the end of the book, some minor ink notations on rear pastedown; jacket lightly soiled, spine panel a bit scuffed, tiny chip at base of spine, one tiny closed tear and very shallow insect-nibbling along lower edge of front panel]. "In this fascinating critical biography, [the author] examines Reich's life and ideas against the background of the shifting cultural and political currents of the twentieth century. Drawing from years of extensive research -- including interviews with those who knew Reich -- Wilson provides a revealing portrait of the genius and flaws of a man now regarded by many as a martyred mystic." .

Description:
London: Granada. Very Good/Very Good. 1981. First Edition. Hard Cloth Cover. 8vo Dust jacket complete, unclipped, in a clear protective sleeve. No ownership marks.Indexed. 306pp clean and tight. Who was Wilhelm Reich? Sexual liberator, dedicated early follower of Freud, was he a misunderstood genius, an `Outsider', a man driven by an inner vision of truth, which he had to pursue at the cost of health and sanity? Or was he an egoist tormented by a desire for `recognition', by the hunger for self-esteem? Colin Wilson writes: `I became fascinated by this enigma of a scientist turning, against his will, into a metaphysical philosopher. . . What I wanted to know was how this Freudian Marxist had come to abandon the scientific and political materialism of his early days.' The quest for the real Wilhelm Reich is a continuously intriguing voyage of discovery. .
