IF you order this book be sure it includes both the disk and the key. You can buy it new from a book store on campus for less than the end cost from AMAZON. Even if the book comes with the disk, (ours did) you still have to go to the company and buy a key. The key only works for you during that class and runs about $65.00.

Student note: The book is cumbersom to carry. Go to Office Depot and have it remounted into the 4 or 5 lesson segments. It is much easier to handle and use.

This book was in great condition when I got it and it did not cost me a bundle of cash. I needed this for a college course and the book store on campus was charging upwards of $70!!! This product came quickly and got me through the class. It is written for those who are not so savvy with the computer lingo and the exercises in it are extremely helpful.
