What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

A contribution to late 20th century thought, the author of this text has developed his philosophy of life as a result of his disturbing experiences in Afghanistan and Czechoslovakia where he was a close witness to the Russian-led invasions. His thesis is that poetry is the best reflection and expression of a universal truth; that it is essential goodness which generates liberality and goodwill, and gives strength and power to our existence. If this truth is ignored, the results are injustices of all kinds which interfere with the harmony, rhythm and order of the universe. This text looks at this idea and draws on examples of the author's own poetry.
