Beschreibung

This is Not the Greenwood Press 1972 reprint. This is the original First Edition (SD, NAP) published by Harvard University. There are a handful of copies for sale of this original edition. They all have one thing in common, they are ex-library books. My copy is NOT an ex-library book. This sets it apart as a rare and unique book. As you can see from the photographs, the covers of the book itself are quite clean though there is some fading of the green color on both the front and back. There is also some fading of the brightness in the gilt lettering on the spine. You should also be able to see that there is very little to no wear on the covers, not even at the corners or the edges. The book is square and tight, very solidly bound. The inside covers and end papers, by contrast, have a not insignificant amount of spotting and darkening. There's also a fair amount of dust soiling on the middle and bottom page edges. However, most importantly, this dust soiling never made its way onto the pages themselves. The pages are very, very clean. And they are not age toned. There is no writing/underlining, etc. on any page in the book. None of the pages have any markings. And I didn't see any creasing. The pages are in excellent condition. Perhaps surprisingly, the dust jacket has only very minimal wear, one small tear off the top edge of the front and rear cover. The first three photographs are of the dust jacket. As you can see the covers, particularly the spine has darkened. The front and back show a fair amount of handling soiling and dust soiling, as opposed to staining. The dust jacket is Not price-clipped, not clipped anywhere. The flaps are in very good condition, a mild crease at the bottom corner of the front flap. The dust jacket has already been fitted with a protective cover, and it improve the general appearance of the jacket. The only Good Plus rating on the dust jacket is solely due to the aforementioned handling and dust soiling. "This book deals with a critical problem: the human effects of technological change on the day-to-day operations of the factory". Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 000784
