    Book was very securely packed and cushioned for transit. The book arrived in literally almost exactly the same good condition it was listed in. Quite pleased with the packaging as many sellers do not take much of any level of care in shipping books these days. Very pleased with book, transaction, and seller and would do business again with seller again.
