Fair condition. The first index page is missing; the rest of the pages are present (I went through the entire book to make sure). There is a small light stain on the top edge of the front cover. There are some similar stains on the top edge of the back cover and also on the inside of the back cover (see pictures). There is some scribbling on the first page. There are a few pages that have underlining and/or word circled or stray marks (see picture for an example). There are a small number of pages with light stains ; most pages are stain free and all pages are completely readable. The pages are yellowing / browning a bit with age, especially along the edges. The edges of some pages have some wear / creasing, and some pages curl slightly near the edges. There are a couple pages that have torn away from the comb binding on the first couple of prongs or the last couple of prongs (see pictures for example). Quite usable if you don't mind the 1 index page missing.
See pictures for more details.
