Binding: hardback, stitch bound.
Printer: in the USA.
Size: 136x228x21mm.
Page count: 220pp.
Main language: English; some quotations given without translation.
Overall condition fair: the dustjacket on this copy is a bit grubby and stained, a little wear on its edges and corners, price-clipped on its front flyleaf; book and dustjacket have both suffered some moisture damage on their top outside corners, which now shows in the form of some staining and wrinkling; some foxing on the page edges; text appears to be free of marking.
