Too bad it represented in such a poor way.". The copy I have has nice, clear, bold type that is easy to read. I am not sure what the reviewer was referring to. This copy is smyth sewn. Smyth sewing is a method of book binding where groups of folded pages (referred to as signatures) are stitched together using binder thread. Each folded signature is sewn together individually with multiple stitches and then joined with other signatures to create the complete book block. This is the traditional and best method of bookbinding.

hardcover. Good. Access codes and supplements are not guaranteed with used items. May be an ex-library book.
