We have made every effort to make this the best book possible. Our paper is
opaque, with minimal show-through; it will not discolor or become brittle with
age. Pages are sewn in signatures, in the method traditionally used for the best
books, and will not drop out, as often happens with paperbacks held together
with glue. Books open flat for easy reference. The binding will not crack or split.
This is a permanent book.
