"It’s a great book. It is comprehensive, and there are lots of opportunities for application and practice."

"This book includes all of [the] elements I think are essential."

"This text provides the necessary information in a format that is easy to follow."

1.0 out of 5 stars unsatisfactory, June 4, 2009
I had to return this text, the pages were badly defaced, it was tattered dirty and gross, the cd was missing and it had a foul smell, I did complain to the seller and I was told to return it so I did, looking forward for my refund, I am sure the contents of this particular text is useful and educational, but "MY COPY" was just not useful to me, buyers beware
Thanks
