Condition report

Overall, this book is in good condition. There's some tears, creases, discolouration and foxing to the dust cover (see images). The most prominent tear to the dust cover is at the spine and spans ~2cm; the remainder of the tears are largely just 'nicks' and edge wear. This copy has been price clipped and has a slight backwards lean. The boards are in good condition, with only a few very minor marks. The pages are generally clean and the binding is firm. There are some very small pencil marks (underlined words) on 2-3 pages. There's light spotting/foxing on the first and last few pages, as well as the page edges.
