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.

This annual volume gives prominence to key trends by distilling the 45 vital signs of our times from thousands of governmental, industrial and scientific sources. It allows readers to track key indicators that show our social, economic and environmental progress, or lack of it. The first part of the book offers a comprehensive presentation of the key indicators in areas such as food, agriculture, energy, atmosphere, economics, transport, health, society and the military. The second part provides in-depth articles on environment (alternative water sources, oil spills, forest cover, economy and finance (ecolabelling and charitable giving), communications (mobile phones, semiconductor production) and social features (including shortage of teachers, gender-based violence and urban sprawl).
