A fine copy of this interesting volume. A fine hardback, with printed paper over boards. Housed in a slipcase, also with printed paper over boards. The slipcase is also fine. Just a few very minor impression marks.
The spine has retained its bright orange colour, which is particularly nice as it is printed with a neon coloured orange ink which is prone to fade in daylight. The book itself appears unread, and is bright, clean and soundly bound. Text block with rainbow coloured edges demarcating sections of the book.
