Description:

This is the first annual installment of “Studies Beyond Good and Evil”-- the Iron Youth Reader. These largely out-of-print works have been selected as a guide to assist the explorer of the taboo and left-hand paths. Neglected, infamous and infernal texts from philosophy, sociology, history and psychology are compiled, with blank pages for notes after each selection. Starting this collection is Robert Eisler’s exploration of sadism, masochism and lycanthropy; Man Into Wolf. Appearing next in the volume is a short anti-religious tract from Marquis deSade- A Dialogue Between a Priest and a Dying Man followed by Oswald Spengler’s Man and Technics. Savitri Devi’s Rocks of the Sun is an excerpt from her book Pilgrimage. LeBon’s The Psychology of the Crowd, a landmark work giving insight into what happens when an individual finds himself one of many. The final contribution to the Reader is Sir Francis Galton’s Essays In Eugenics.
