Above are all fifteen volumes of Sic Itur Ad Astra, 7730 pages in all, encompassing the professor’s theories of capitalism (v-50), primary property (v-201), v-50x, and the Joe Pyne interview all transcribed from the original course tapes with nothing edited out other than, in the words of William Martin, his literary executor, “his slips of tongue, sometimes an unfinished sentence, occasionally those moments when he was thinking out loud while unscrambling a train of thought or a confusion of dates or numbers, or when he made a false start or ventured a tentative sentence that he verbally erased for another. Other than this, everything was kept just as it was… even his beliefs in falsely reported history and protracted wartime propaganda were kept just as he said them since these were beliefs that had motivated him to create his theories.”
Also included is the revolutionary new kind of index developed by William Martin, the two volume set he called “the Master Concordex.” 1254 pages of perhaps the most comprehensive and explicit index entries ever compiled, and in a book truly worthy of such a compilation. The Concorde is an education unto itself. The books also include the hundreds of original slides the professor used during his presentation, all in color and presented exactly when the professor did so during the lectures. A master table of contents is also included with over 4500 headers used in the volumes representing the topics covered by the professor. Finally, this special edition consisting of just fifty sets are, per the professor’s instructions, hardback, use off-while high quality durable paper and are specially numbered and stamped one through fifty.

I just got my box today. All I can say is WOW! Everything’s perfectly wrapped and the book bindings and paper are beautiful and feel very high quality. The certificate inside is a great touch too, with the numbered edition noted. Love the note about commemorating 100 years since Galambos’s birth. I can’t wait to dig in. I feel like I just got my next couple of years of reading adventures delivered today.
Great work by all. Really awesome.
Thank you, Brandon
