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.

Across Mexico, reporters are vanishing amid an escalating conflict between the government and drug lords. The Chinese government censors the Internet and harasses journalists during the Olympic Games, breaking its promise to promote free and open media. While Iraq remains the world's most dangerous place for the press, a short but brutal conflict in the breakaway regions of Georgia also claims the lives of reporters and photographers.
"Attacks on the Press in 2008" offers factual and unbiased analyses of press conditions in 120 countries, while offering a behind-the-curtain look at how the international press survives --and thrives. Critical journalists continue to be imprisoned in countries such as Cuba, Tunisia, and Azerbaijan. Yet governments are struggling to silence bloggers who are reaching growing audiences throughout the Middle East and Asia. In Africa, a more vocal and technologically savvy press is successfully fighting official harassment.
The world's most comprehensive guide to international press freedom, Attacks on the Press is compiled annually by the Committee to Protect Journalists, an independent, nonprofit organization.
