GREY MATTER BOOKS

After a year of hauling out the poetry and literature, we thought we'd give the right hemisphere a rest and activate the other half of our bicameral mission. Thus we are offering steeply-discounted new copies of Ox Bow Press science reprints (pictured above). These include all four volumes of the Philosophical Papers of Niels Bohr, as well as books by his sometime friends Heisenberg and Schrodinger. The press also published several titles by and about J. Willard Gibbs, a volume of Goethe's botanical writings and a smattering of other near-classics in science and philosophy.

But there is still a steady supply of avant-garde poetry from the late 60's-early 80's trickling out when space permits.

Welcome to the Grey Matter/Troubadour Amalgamation of Books, Hadley's #1 hard-to-find source for hard-to-find books and records. We are located just off the bike path at East St. and non-motorists get a 10% discount year-round. We have a large, constantly churned selection of scholarly, scientific and general stock, nearly all priced below their internet brethren. House-calls made for quality collections in Amherst, Northampton, Springfield, and thoughout Connecticut and the New York metropoliitan area.

 We have recently acquired around fifty brand-new copies of Robert Seydel's 'A Picture is Always a Book', co-published by Smith College Library. The book is half the list price, or $18, but if you were a friend or student of Robert's and don't have $18 to spare, we will trot out the old sliding scale.
