This book is great for history buffs and those interested in foreign policy. To use it, simply open the pages and start reading. When handling, make sure your hands are clean to avoid soiling the pages further. Since the binding is starting to loosen, be gentle when opening and closing the book. Store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent further damage to the covers and the fore edge. Also, if you're borrowing it from a library, remember to return it on time.
