It went through many editions and was widely read across the world. The controversy surrounding the book led to B chner leaving his post at the University of T bingen, but he went on to establish the German Freethinkers' League, the first German organisation for atheists. This book, first published in 1864, is a translation of the eighth edition, and is edited by J. Frederick Collingwood, who wanted to bring B chner's work to an English audience. It contains translations of the prefaces from the first, third and fourth editions of Kraft und Stoff, and an introductory letter from B chner which expresses his belief that Darwin's theory of evolution has given support to his materialist theory.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/10/804/030/1108040306_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "55.00", "online_price" : "55.00", "our_price" : "55.00", "club_price" : "55.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
