Unfortunately the publisher didn't put an introduction the book itself. And what exactly did he omit making it "abridged". And in addition leaving out any kind of biography of the author, or translator etc. In addition, the publisher spaced out the text in the book, so it seems to be a bigger book when it's not in reality.

Very poor formatting of the book. Definitely not worth $35, but this publication is known for extremely over pricing books, unfortunately.

I actually want to return it, but I'll read from it and see how it goes. In my heart, this really feels like a rushed work, especially overpriced. How can you not included at the least a biography of the author? My above words is as a customer of this book, I'm not back biting, slandering, etc.
