Seller's Description:
This copy has clearly been enjoyed-expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover. Binding is strong and all pages are legible. May contain previous library markings or stamps.
I rarely like artsy books written by scientists and this was no exception. Lightman imagined different worlds systematically, but unfortunately the people in them were cardboard.
