      Used Good(1 Copy): Illustrated in B&W Maps Good to Very Good/Very Good 0553078755 Please note: the true First edition was published in 1992 and contains 266 pages and measures 22 cm. The 1997 edition was published as the 5th anniversary edition and it contains 273 pages and measures 24 cm. The confusion seems to arrise from both editions sharing the same ISBN. The DJ's original price, of US $20.00, is still present. First Edition with the full number sequence of 1-10 present on the copyright page. The spine of the book has a rise along the middle which may have originated in the printing & binding process. Approximately 30 pages have a few sentences underlined in either pencil or pen. Pages are tight and clean.
