On Agression by Konrad Lorenz, Bantam editions

From Wikipedia:
On Aggression (German: Das sogenannte Böse. Zur Naturgeschichte der Aggression, “So-called Evil: on the natural history of aggression”) is a 1963 book by the ethologist Konrad Lorenz; it was translated into English in 1966. As he writes in the prologue, “the subject of this book is aggression, that is to say the fighting instinct in beast and man which is directed against members of the same species.”
The book was reviewed many times, both positively and negatively, by biologists, anthropologists, psychoanalysts and others. Much criticism was directed at Lorenz’s extension of his findings on non-human animals to humans.
The first Bantam Books edition was published in 1967, featuring Tension for the title.

Does anyone know if there’s really a glyph set of Tension in Alphabet Thesaurus Vol. 2 or is it marked EXCLUSIVE?
I’ve decided to answer my own question. It is not marked Exclusive.
Sorry, I didnt see your question. Tension was added to PLINC’s library sometime between 1960 and 1964. It’s listed without credits.
