Condition: Poor Condition — £367.51
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.

'It is beneficial to one's health not to be carnivorous. The strongest animals, such as the bull, are vegetarians. Look at me. I have ten times as much good health and energy as a meat eater.'

So said George Bernard Shaw, a vegetarian and also a man much concerned about his weight: the calories in each of his meals had to be carefully weighted and the total accurately calculated.

His cook-housekeeper, Mrs Laden, looked after him for the sixteen years before his death in 1943 at the age of ninety-four. These are the recipes that made up the menus she devised for him - all delicious, satisfying, and all conforming to his standards of vegetarianism, low calory count and economy.
