1.0 out of 5 stars Very poor quality, June 10, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I have only read the first two chapters and I feel that the text is straight forward and presented well.

However, when I pay almost $100 for a new book I expect it to look like a textbook. I am in a bind because I am currently taking a class for which I need this book, otherwise it would have gone straight back to amazon. This is not a hardcover book. It looks like a bootleg copy! The inside looks like a poor photocopy (black and white only). Some pages are hard to read and have copy lines. This is not what I expected from amazon at all. I have never been disappointed in the past, but I am with this purchase. I will purchase my textbooks from a different seller in the future.

3.0 out of 5 stars adequate., December 25, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I think the cost is too much to begin with. The price of such items could be far less in my opinion, especially in the spirit of Christmas. Otherwise business as usual: adequate.
