2.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS ONLY THE STUDY GUIDE, April 25, 2008
Unfortunately, the seller did not mention that this is NOT the textbook, but a workbook to accompany the text.

Damn.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not Happy!, January 14, 2008
I am not happy. Nowhere did it say that this was a study guide. All it said was that it was in paperback. I needed the actual book, not the study guide for the book.
