Reader's note

A brilliant and blue 1952 edition of One-Upmanship by Stephen Potter. 'Virtually this book is a description of the Gameslife College of One-Upness and Life-mastery, its aims, its activities and, in a sense, its staff. Subjects as wide apart as Troutman Ship, Game Birdmanship and Bird Gamesmanship are taught, Witnesmanship and The Art of Not Rock Climbing, with Businessmanship, Hands Across the Seamanship and a definitive chapter on Doctorship and the Health Ploy. These are taught, less as activities in themselves, more as the doing of the doing, the art of the art, the business of the business, the preservation with and beyond each of those interdependent states of being, One-upness and Lifemastery.'
