AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

The book presented is a volume from the "Que sais-je?" collection, titled "L'inflation", written by Maurice Flamant. The visible cover features a characteristic orange-brown hue typical of this famous series published by Presses Universitaires de France (PUF). The title, author, and publisher are clearly printed on the front, with "Que sais-je?" at the top of the book on a white background, followed by the main title in black letters and the author's name in capital letters.

The front cover of the book also shows a circular graphic motif featuring the words "Le point des connaissances actuelles" (The state of current knowledge) around a star, a recurring visual signature of the collection. The spine of the book is not visible in the photo, and only the front cover is presented.

The cover shows some light signs of wear and handling, including fine scratches and minor scuff marks on the edges, typical of an old or vintage item. No major tears or significant stains are visible on the displayed surface. The binding appears soft, consistent with the standard paperback edition of "Que sais-je?".

The typeface used for the title and author is typical of French university editions from the second half of the 20th century. The colors and graphic style suggest an edition likely published between the 1960s and 1980s, consistent with the historical design of the collection.

The legible inscriptions on the cover are:
- "que sais-je ?"
- "L'INFLATION"
- "MAURICE FLAMANT"
- "Presses Universitaires de France"
- "Le point des connaissances actuelles" (around the central motif)

The book is used and sold as-is, with visible signs of wear on the cover. The interior is not visible in the photo.
