25.9 x 17.1 cm, 1030g, ISBN 0 30493 656 1

See the description below from the dustwrapper flap.

The main part of the book is printed on heavyweight glazed paper in order to reproduce the photographs better, but the final two gatherings of the book (pp 243-277) only have line-drawings and diagrams, so the publisher has used a different quality of paper, which has browned significantly in comparison with the rest of the book.

Long out of print.
