Overall condition good: the dustjacket on this copy has some scuffs and scratches, and is rather rumpled and worn at the edges and corners, price-clipped on its front flyleaf; boards and spine a little grubby with some mild wear at the edges and corners, but otherwise the book itself looks in good order, text appears to be free of marking.
