I would like to ask how to identify whether a book is genuine or pirated. Are the books in Bertelsmann genuine?

To determine whether a book was genuine or pirated, the following aspects could be considered: 1 Check the publication date: The publication date of a legitimate book should accurately reflect the time of publication of the book without any delays or errors. You can check the publication date on the book cover or label to see if it matches the book's publication date. 2. Check the printing quality: The printing quality of legitimate books is usually better than pirated books because the printing of legitimate books is carried out by professional printing factories to ensure the stability and accuracy of the printing quality of books. If the quality of the pirated book was poor, it was likely to be pirated. 3. Check the book packaging: The packaging of genuine books is usually intact and the printed words and images on the packaging are clearly discernible. You can check the packaging of the book for any damage or distortion, for any obvious mistakes or discrepancies. 4. Check the cover of the book: The cover of a genuine book usually matches the content of the book. The printed words and images on the cover are clearly discernible, and the title and author information on the cover are correct. If the book cover was wrong or inconsistent, it was likely to be pirated. As for the books in Bertelsmann, because Bertelsmann was an online bookstore, it was difficult to directly distinguish the source of the books from the pirated copies. It is recommended to choose a reputable online bookstore when purchasing books and check the reviews and reviews of the books to obtain the experience and suggestions of other readers.
