About This Item
Chicago & New York: Aldine Atherton, 1973 WYSIWYG pricing--no added shipping charge for standard shipping within USA. Pale geen linen, copper titles on spine, blind device on front board, xxvii, 703 pp, 95 figures, 23 tables, bibliography (56 pp), index. Extremeties rubbed, edges somewhat soiled, front hinge re-glued with acid-free PVA. DJ rubbed, with a few tears (some taped from back), spine slightly faded; covered with adhesive plastic. From the Foreword: "In searching for an understanding of prehistoric groups, their settlements and their way of life, we must not let data-gathering obscure understanding. Instead our work must be more problem-oriented. Each discipline must contribute directly to ecological synthesis, and the archeologist must concentrate on deriving more meaningful results from his own data, rather than attempt to integrate all categories of evidence. More explicitly, I would hope for archeologists who can think as geographers, who can derive more social and economic inference from their materials, and who can interact with other scientists also interested in prehistroic man." Extensively revised and expanded. Shipping weight 3 lbs.. 2nd ed, 2nd ptg. . VG-/G. 24 X 16½ cm.

Terms of Sale
Twin City Antiquarian Books
Books are offered subject to prior sale. You may return any book within 14 days for a refund; if it was not as described, we will also refund return shipping costs (but please e-mail us first). You can place credit card orders through Biblio, or we will ship upon receipt of payment by check or money order. Sales tax is collected by Biblio and remitted directly to your state, where applicable. SHIPPING IN UNITED STATES: Books are priced postpaid, so there are no additional shipping charges for standard shipping. We will ship via Priority Mail for $12.00 per order (Save on multiple-book orders!). This may be reduced if actual postage is less than for a medium flat-rate box. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: In most cases, shipping via Biblio's consolidated shipping program via Asendia is the cheapest option on orders up to 5 lbs. International shipping rates are complex (cost depends upon weight and destination), so please feel free to email us for a quote before you order. If the actual cost of shipping is more than the automatically quoted rate, you must approve the additional charges before the order will be shipped. Shipping charges will be reduced if shipping weight is under 3 lbs. All shipping charges (except via Asendia) include 17% to cover Biblio fees and commissions that apply to these charges. LIBRARIES: We offer flexible terms to public and university libraries.
