This review is from: The Critical Edge: Thinking and Researching in a Virtual Society (Paperback)

I was pleased with the condition of the book, just as promised. Just a bit disappointed in how long it took to be delivered. I was expecting it sooner for a college class. The seller responded to an email and explained the delay.
