Description: The Mass Psychology of Fascism by Wilhelm Reich First US edition, inscribed by Wilhelm Reich to his second wife, Ilse New York: Orgone Institute Press Inc., 1946. First American edition. (Correct first in the English language as well.) Signed by Wilhelm Reich on the front free endpaper and inscribed to his second wife, "To Ilse Ollendorff, with my heartfelt thank [sic] for all her help Aug. 1946 Wilhelm Reich." xxiv, 344 pp. Bound in publisher's navy cloth with gilt lettering. Very Good+ with light edge wear; staining to rear board. Spine slightly mottled; contents lightly toned. In a Near Fine unclipped supplied jacket with light toning, small tear to rear joint at foot, and rubbing to rear panel. One of the renegade Freudian psychologist's most influential works, which posits sexual repression as the genesis of authoritarianism. A terrific association copy inscribed to his second wife (a partner in his highly unorthodox research in the US during the 1940s and early 1950s, and mother to his son) whom he would marry that year. They would stay together until 1951, when Reich discovered DOR and began constructing his famous cloudbusters. Signed copies of Reich's books are quite uncommon in the market.
