ix+303 pages with index. Octavo (8 1/2" x 6 1/2") bound in original publisher's green cloth with black and gilt lettering to spine in original publisher's jacket. First edition. In this work J P Zollinger aims, "in a scientifically justifiable way, to integrate what is known regarding the world of political civilization into the general framework of modern evolutionary science, to break down the ancient superstition that the world of man, stands outside the general world order, or that he lives in a hermetically sealed domain within nature." The focal point of Zollinger's investigation is evolutionary theory interpreted in the light of Bohr's complementary principle, which Zollinger sees as the most fundamental principle of natural development and thus of social development a well. Condition: Corners bumped. Jacket corners rubbed else a very good to fine in a near fine jacket., George Braziller, 1967, Twayne Publishers, 1990. 1st Printing. Trade Paperback. Very Good. First paperback printing. Spine head bumped, pencil marginalia throughout. 1990 Trade Paperback. xvii, 190 pp. The last half of the eighteenth century was a period of enormous cultural and intellectual ferment in America-an era of fundamental transformation in law, politics, and religion, as well as deep changes in the American social order. At the center of the turmoil was the American Revolution, an event with roots reaching far back into the colonial period and effects extending well into the nineteenth century. In The Roots of Democracy: American Thought and Culture, 1760-1800 Robert E. Shalhope traces the dramatic shifts in attitudes and behavior from before the Revolution, through the war itself, the creation of republican governments, and the conflicts of the 1790s. This outstanding synthesis addresses a number of recurrent themes in American cultural history, including the persistence of conflict between democratic impulses and elitist tendencies-a conflict that has resurfaced in our own time. Anyone seeking to understand American political thought will find this straightforward and provocative book a useful entry into the subject and will come away with a deeper awareness of the origins and meaning of American democracy. The Roots of Democracy is an outstanding synthesis that provides provocative insights into a vital time in which the forces that formed modern American democracy took shape., Twayne Publishers, 1990<
