Overall condition fair to good: covers a little yellowed with age, some mild wear on the edges and corners, a crease to the spine; printed on different grades of paper, so pages in some parts of the book look whiter than others; old student union price stamp inside front cover, and the previous owner’s name on the half-title page, but the main text appears to be free of marking.
