About this copy

This is a 1988 Bantam Press hardcover edition, published in London. The copyright page states the book was first published in 1988 and reprinted three times that same year; this copy corresponds to one of those later 1988 printings rather than the earliest issue. The book retains its original illustrated dust jacket, featuring the well-known cover photograph of Stephen Hawking at a blackboard.

Introduction by Carl Sagan.

Condition

Book
Very Good – text block and boards appear clean and sound, with no inscriptions or markings noted.
Dust jacket
Good – general rubbing and light creasing visible, particularly at the corners and spine ends, consistent with age and handling.

This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
