First Edition (Number Line to 1). Signed and inscribed on the Dedication page: 'To Ron Miskie, Best regards & wishes for your continued success! Michael Mische.' Once listed, this will be the Only signed copy of the book for sale on the Internet. There's also a separate signed letter from the co-author to Mr. Miskie who at the time was the chairman of Knowledge Transfer International headquartered in New York City. The book is in very nice shape. The white covers look perfectly clean. The gilt lettering on the spine is very bright. The cover edges and corners look very good. The spine ends have the usual little bit of crinkling. The page edges are very clean. The book is square and the spine is straight. The binding is very solid from cover to cover with nicely tight pages and nicely tight covers as well. The inside covers and end papers are blue. They are very clean and free of wear. That aptly describes all of the pages in the book. I'm scrolling through without finding any soiling. The pages are nicely bright. I'm not seeing any creasing. There are no markings. No attachments. And with the exception of the co-author's signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The dust jacket has not too much wear. It looks very clean. There is a tiny loss off the bottom edge of the rear cover (fourth photo). That edge also has a small tear and there is one other small tear off the rear top edge. The flaps are in very solid shape. They're very clean. There's just a crinkle or two. The jacket is not priced or clipped. It will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are scanned. There are a number of illustrations throughout the book. You can read a little bit about the book from the rear cover which can be seen in the fourth photo.
