DESCRIPTION:
"Five Stars" according to Amazon Customer. Reading was very simple to understand. Crusader said Good Textbook. I purchased this book for my son's college course; he says the textbook is excellent with facts and includes topics that are noteworthy -- and he rec'd an "A". And at a reasonable price.. As a novel it would be fine, not really great as a textbook. M. McCollam I rented this book from Amazon for a class I'm taking. The rental is perfectly fine, if I was reviewing for that, I'd give it 4.5 stars. There is very little writing and highlighting. The only reason I'd give it 4.5 instead of 5 is that the supplemental disk isn't with it. I haven't needed it, but it would be nice to have if I wanted it.This 3 star
