Book arrived quickly and brand new. No tears or writing and the seller packaged the book carefully and well.

Highly recommended

I had the pleasure of taking Dr. Leavitts Methodology class at CSU East Bay, he's one of the most engaging, interesting and challenging teachers you'll ever have. His class isn't challenging because the material is hard to understand or time consuming, but because he challenges you to examine your own preconceptions and values in the most unbiased and fair way possible. Great and interesting read from a brilliant teacher.
