    Arrived sooner than predicted, packaged well and in decent condition. The cover and back cover are pretty beat up, but the inside is undamaged. Description was not totally accurate (for example, the page count was different--but it doesn't appear that any pages are missing), but for the price point, it can't be beat. I would definitely buy from this seller again.

    Book is as listed with the exception of penciled underlining and penciled writing in the margins throughout the book. I appreciate the packaging of the paperback book in a cardboard mailer box and it arrived undamaged. Fast shipping. A
