In the publisher's original paperback binding. Externally, some age-toning and edgewear, along with slight bumping to the head and tail of the spine. Some creasing to the extremities. Internally, front hinge is strained, though remaining binding is firm. Pages are lightly age-toned to the extremities with the odd handling mark, but are otherwise clean.
