This book was previously purchased by my daughter from a used bookstore for use in her university lectures. Regarding the condition, there is a 5mm tear on the upper right corner of the cover, and numerous stains and sun damage on the edges and top/bottom, possibly due to aging. Inside, there are pages with what appear to be water damage, and several pages with folded corners. Due to the thickness being barely within the limits of Mercari shipping regulations, it will be shipped with simple packaging without bubble wrap. Please understand.
