A vintage book with obvious wear. Has some damage to the cover, including very minor scuff marks along the edges, but integrity still intact. No writing in margins, no underlining and highlighting of text, and no missing pages or anything that would compromise the legibility or understanding of the text. The bottom corner of the first page, and the top corner of the second page have been ripped out. There are also similar rips on the last 3 pages in the book (looks like a shark has bitten out the corners), plus the last page in the book is stuck to the back cover. Still a clean, solid, and readable copy.
