Due to being cut, the overall condition is listed as poor, but there are no writings or missing pages. I believe there will be no problem with scanning. "Cut" means that the spine of the book has been cut to make it into an electronic file such as a PDF, resulting in a state of a "bundle of paper" with all pages separated. Turning a "book" with a spine into a "bundle of paper" is done to make it easier to read with a document scanner specialized for continuously reading large amounts of documents. When scanned and converted into an electronic file such as a PDF, it can be read on tablets and computers. You can search for "self-scanning books" to understand more. Since it is not in a condition suitable for reading in paper form, please refrain from purchasing if you do not intend to digitize it.
