Grade: Good (Unmarked Text / Proactive Archival Reinforcement)
This paperback has been previously used but retains excellent study utility. The most important feature is the interior: the pages are bright, clean, and completely free of any highlighting, marginalia, or underlining. The exterior covers show normal, light handling wear, but the spine remains clean and uncreased.
Structural Note: Upon opening the book, we noticed a slight amount of the inner gutter showing at the title page hinge. While no pages were loose or falling out, we took the proactive step of applying a neat, vertical strip of professional, transparent archival book tape down this inner gutter to reinforce the binding and ensure it does not become an issue during future study. The repair is highly localized and secure.
This book fits squarely within eBay's 'Good' guidelines. Since condition is important, we have provided a detailed video and clear photos (including a close-up of the reinforced gutter) to help you assess the item for yourself. Please consider all uploaded media as the primary description of the item's condition.
