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.

By the time the Nazi interlude in German history came to a close, almost everything in the country had been destroyed. But, despite the millions of refugees and wrecked homes, and the dereliction of German industry, it was all rebuilt surprisingly quickly. Germany once more became a leading technological nation. German artists and writers emerged from hiding and resumed their work. But one thing was never repaired. When the Nazis took over Germany, German science was the best in the world. Despite all efforts to revive it, it has never recovered. This book looks at the often dubious work German scientists undertook during the Nazi era, especially in the fields of biology, medicine, aeronautics and nuclear physics, and chronicles the ultimate decline and death of German science
