An amazing book under a low quality hardcover
This is an amazing book. A marvel in my humble oppinion!. I continuously get it in public or private libraries. This book is printed by Copernicus, and inprint of Springer-Verlang. Normally, this book is with perfect cover. All the editions in library are using Hardcover or Case bound: "Standard binding used for hardcover books. Several different types to choose from, but typically involves inside pages being sewn together in sections. These are then glued to end papers which are glued to covers spine.." Then, now I decided to buy this book in hardcover(case bound), in order to have this marble in my personal library.My surprise is this book is using a low quality cover named Tape Bound, a low price type of cover. Is there any difference? yes! the future of the book is compromised, because this case can break due the lack of flexibility. On the other side, this low quality case do not have a good affordance, as for example, to read the book while standing up.Quality of paper for the pages of the book is compromised too: the current edition is using traditional photocopy paper bound that affects the resolution and quality of letters, while the original/traditional editions in public and private libraries are in high quality paper.I feel like I received a copy of a book made in illegal places for photocopies. I feel I do not received and original copy.I attached a photo of the original binding compared with the binding this seller send to me.
