    Book shipped quickly, very well packaged. When it arrived, it was found to have several faults that had not been mentioned in the description. When these flaws were pointed out to the seller, compensation was immediately provided. Seller's attention to this matter was very professional, and reflects my overall postive evaluation. Thanks very much.
