  • Good book in a good condition

    Had concerns about book condition as it was rated acceptable, but was really pleased upon receiving. Well, it has been well read by several people. Most probably it was in public use (library?). But it is really good condition for further personal use. Just highlights and underlining on a few pages and weared cover with damaged corners. But the price vs new one really makes this order great. So really recomend seller!
