En muy buen estado
Libro que se ha leído y que no tiene un aspecto nuevo, pero que está en un estado excelente. No hay desperfectos visibles en la tapa y se incluye sobrecubierta, si procede, para las tapas duras. Todas las páginas están en perfecto estado, sin arrugas ni roturas y no falta ninguna. El texto no está subrayado ni resaltado de forma alguna, y no hay anotaciones en los márgenes. Puede presentar marcas de identificación mínimas en la contraportada o las guardas. Muy poco usado. Consulta el anuncio del vendedor para obtener más información y la descripción de cualquier posible imperfección.

Synopsis
The Cultures of the West: A History focuses on the ways in which the major ideas and passions of Western culture developed, internally, and how they interacted with the broader world-for good and for ill. The development of such key ideas as religion, science, and philosophy form the central narrative of this book. The Cultures of the West stands apart from other textbooks in a variety of ways, the first being thematic unity. What did people think and believe, throughout our history, about human nature, the right way to live, God, the best forms of government, or the meaning of human life? Rather than maintaining a single interpretive stance, author Clifford R. Backman relies upon a consistent set of questions: What did people think and feel throughout the centuries about politics, science, religion, and sex? How did they come to their positions regarding the right way to live? Backman's many years of experience in the classroom have informed his approach-students respond to engaging questions more than they are inspired by facts., The Cultures of the West: A History focuses on the ways in which the major ideas and passions of Western culture developed, internally, and how they interacted with the broader world-for good and for ill.

The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.How to chalk talk, by Harlan Tarbell (#197064259889)
