Seller did a VERY GOOD JOB, don’t get me wrong. It is the book itself that is not so nice to me. It contains many many information and extremely few review questions. 5 questions for one chapter is way too less. The CD content is the same as the web site content, so what is the point of giving both a CD and an online access code if both links contain the same information??????

I was so impressed w/ not only the price, but the condition of this book as well as it’s timely delivered. Ad said the book was in “good” condition, this book “excellent-brand new condition”. College bookstore $97.50, I paid $46.58 including expedited shipping; ordered on Thurs. evening & received on Sat. Great experience for first time book buyer of Amazon; will be a repeat customer.

book came in shape as advertised. Would have been nice to know there is web site code in book that can’t be used again. Worked for my class and didn’t need the code.
