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.

What is Maoism? Who was Steve Biko? When did the Suez Crisis occur and how was it resolved? How did the Watergate scandal unfold? What were the aims of the Baader Meinhof Gang? The answers to these, as well as thousands of other questions, can all be found in Peter Teed's remarkably comprehensive Dictionary of Twentieth-Century History, the most up-to-date reference of its kind available.
Offering over 2,000 alphabetically arranged entries, this book spans the century from the outbreak of World War I in 1914 right up to the recent Allied victory over Iraq in the Gulf War. A team of expert advisers, selected for their regional expertise, provide authoritative coverage of all the major countries, figures, movements, events, and incidents that have helped shape this turbulent century. A unique feature of the book is the attention it pays to the social, cultural, and technological dimensions of twentieth-century life, offering entries, for example, on Picasso, the Beatles, and feminism.
Fully cross-referenced and readily accessible to all kinds of readers, this book is a must for every home and office.
