Aberystwyth University closed one of its campuses a few years ago. The place has been left to rot, but recently they’ve started clearing the place out, and removing all the old scientific textbooks. Most of them look untouched. Wonder how much this lot would have set students back if buying new.

      No it isn’t if it has potentially wrong conclusions corrected in later editions. Isn’t that the sort of thing that contributes to hallucinations?
