Flammarion, 1995, Softcover (Stiff Card), Book Condition: Good, Dust Jacket Condition: No, Unstated
The book is as described i.e. in "Good" condition, which is a grade or two off Fine or Very Good. There is a small crease down the spine (full length) but there is no danger to the internal binding/gluing because this book is SECTION SEWN (i.e. bound in sections with thread) unlike the usual softcover glued (perfect-bound) book, so it is most unlikely to ever have pages working loose (same as most hardcovers' binding). The text is unmarked throughout and unadorned by former owners. There are no dog-ears in the book that we can spot, and the cover is not scratched or otherwise damaged on front cover. Back cover the same, except for a vertical crease about 2" in from spine, which is not particularly noticeable and does not badly affect the overall cover in either appearance or strength. Being "good" the book DOES have some wear and signs of use, but is overall in solid and probably better than merely "good" condition. One of a large, sophisticated collection from an Australian expert in Buddhism, Tibetan language, Sanskrit and related subject areas. Many of the volumes from this collection are listed at this site and can be found as a set by searching for the special Keyword pwbuddhist Size: Octavo (standard book size). Text body is clean, and free from previous owner annotation, underlining and highlighting. Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. No foxing in this copy. All edges clean, neat and free of foxing. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram. Category: Religion & Theology; ISBN: 2080135589. ISBN/EAN: 9782080135582. All our pictures shown here are of the actual item, not stock photos. Inventory No: 7218.
