About this Item
Stated First Edition. Signed and inscribed by the author on the first front end paper (see photo). Once listed, this will be the Only signed copy of this book for sale anywhere on the Internet. As you can see from the photographs, the blue covers of the book are in very good condition. They are very clean. They have very little wear, tiny rubbing at the corners, a thin crease at the bottom of the spine, and some color fading on the spine. The book is square and straight. It is very solidly bound, absolutely no issues in that regard. After scrolling through the pages I can say that they are exceptionally clean and free of any wear. There aren't any markings. No attachments. And with the exception of the author's signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in this book. The dust jacket is also in very good condition. It is very clean. It shows only minor wear, a small closed tear off the top edge of the front and a couple of tiny spots of scuffed off blue color also at the top edge of the front cover. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. The flaps are in perfect condition. The jacket will be fitted with a protective cover. From the introduction 'Pedaguese is characterized by words which obscure more than they communicate, words which don't say what they mean, or perhaps mean nothing at all. We educators are bucking a language barrier which we ourselves have created. If we have trouble communicating with each other, naturally we're going to have trouble getting across to the public. Certainly we are not going to be very persuasive if we are not understood.'. Seller Inventory # 001881
