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.

Theos was launched in 2006 with a report entitled 'Doing God': A Future for Faith in the Public Square. Now, ten years on, Theos looks back to that publication and forward to the future of Christianity in 21st century Britain. Foreword by the Most Rev Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury and Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster: "Strange things are happening to Christianity in the United Kingdom. While critics prophesy its imminent demise, Christians across the country are doing what they too, have done for may hundreds of years: worship, pray, witness, serve. There is nothing, of course, strange about this. What is strange - or at least worthy of greater notice than it usually receives - is that the breadth, depth and intensity of this Christian service is deepening. From personal debt advice to marriage counselling, from foodbanks to street pastors, from rehabilitation to reconciliation, the Church - and Christian charities across the country are rolling up their sleeves, struggling on behalf of human dignity, pursuing the common good - and doing it all in the name of Jesus Christ. In this report, Theos' Research Director Nick Spencer charts a view of the future for Christianity in the UK, drawing on the wealth of data and evidence that Theos has accumulated in its years of research. That view is one in which service is central, but it is service-as-witness, service that is firmly rooted in, shaped by and unashamed of its faith in Jesus Christ. The report's idea of "Christian social liturgy" expresses how Christians can combine their fidelity to the two greatest commandments - loving God and loving neighbour - in a way that is simultaneously distinctive and inclusive."
