The cover is a representation of a statue that stands in the grounds of the UN in New York and is used with the express written permission of the UN legal department. The statue was donated to the UN in 1958 by the Soviet Union and represents a sword being transformed into an agricultural implement by a soldier-turned-farmer. The book was typeset in 10 point Minion Pro with 14 point leading, which combine to give the pages a classical, airy feel. Chapter titles and headers are in Felix Titling which is a special title font more agressively articulated than main-body font. InDesign 5.5 was used in the production and extensive use was made of its optical margin alignment as well as grids. The red colour of the cover is in Pantone DS 73-1 C. This is a particularly harsh variant of red which was chosen to emphasize the hammerman figure on the front cover.

We have produced and printed Pareto's Republic and the New Science of Peace without the aid of a single taxpayer dollar. At Cooper-Wolfling we believe you should pay only for the books you want to read, rather than paying for the books other people want to read.

We will be glad to email the subsidy-free logo to any authors or publishers adhering to the same standards.
