Description:
Toronto: Marion Boyers | Burns MacEachern, 1978. First Canadian Edition. Hardcover. pp. 95. Slim 8vo., measuring 5.25" x 8". Publisher's red boards, gilt lettering to the spine. Lightest egdewear, neat ink name to the ffep, else, contents remain without blemish with bright, clean, and unmarked pages, and tight, sound binding; very good+ and housed in near fine un-clipped dustjacket (now housed in protective mylar cover). Overall, very good+. "In this postscript to Tools for Creativitiy, Illich calls for the right to useful unemployment: a positive, constructive, and even optimistic concept dealing with that activity by which people are useful to themselves and others outside the production of commodities for the market. Unfettered by managing professionals, unmeasured and unmeasureable by economists, these activities truly generate satisfaction, creativity, and freedom."
