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.

We have had five million conversations. This will go to the wire. ED MILIBAND

Iain Watson was the BBC Political Correspondent assigned to follow the Labour campaign. He shares the gaffes and glories of the 2015 general election culminating in the notorious 'Edstone' and humiliating defeat. He offers a colourful account of the intimate day-to-day moments not captured on camera and reveals the divisions, doubts and delusions of Miliband's core campaign team.

As self-proclaimed winners of the 'ground war', how could Labour have got it so wrong?

How could Labour's activists talk to a record number of voters - and end up with fewer seats than at the previous election?

What was the nature of those conversations?

How will the party's next leader avoid the same mistakes?

This huge democratic exercise ... all across this country showed our party and our movement, passionate, democratic, diverse, united and absolutely determined in our quest for a decent and better society.JEREMY CORBYN
