    Item arrived as a new item, wasn’t shrunk wrapped but seems okay. Quality was as expected for a new hardback edition. Great value as others were selling for same price but used ! Also appearance is good with the hardback cover. Seller was happy to help in regards to delivery delay and responded very quickly. Item arrived a few days later than expected but that is more to do with the delivery company than seller.

  • Accessible language interesting read

    Came clean, no major bends/ rips in pages. V good quality. thank u! Purity and Danger offers v clear explanations in fairly accessible language. Interesting and convincing insights in notions of ‘purity’ and its similarity to our perception of hygiene. Thick book but thats bc Mary Douglas refers to quite a few specific examples. Essential bits are condensed and well summarized in the into+conclusion so read them first if ur in a rush lol
