White dustwrapper not price-clipped ($18.95) with title lettering in blue across top front cover, above blue and white photograph of a Neutrino Reaction taken at CERN, author name lettering in maroon across bottom front cover; white of dw is toned; small wear at top corners; short, very thin horizontal creases near middle front cover top edge (probably due to dw at some point riding too high on book); slight, very thin line wear across spine ends and at corners: describes much worse than it is, but there you have it. Only flaw of book itself is previous owner bookplate on ffep, else tight binding, sharp corners, no rubbing wear. Clean text. Book as artifact looks little opened but for mounting ex-libris sticker: essentially unread. Good book for smart high school student, educated layperson, aspiring philosopher of physics: sophisticated book, but readable! From dustwrapper bio: "For over twenty years [the author] has made science intelligible to audiences ranging from junior high school students to the general public and Members of Congress.".
