3.0 out of 5 starsBuyer Beware
By Kritik on January 9, 2008
Format: Paperback
Apparently, the publisher is none too willing to do a full reprint or custom publication of this text. I paid full list price for it after not being able to obtain a desk copy. What I received was certainly not worth list price, nor is it a hard cover. I received a paperback version of the book, and the pages are, at best, photocopy-quality ... and shoddy at that.

The book itself is useful, although incomplete in parts and perhaps too general for an advanced undergraduate seminar. For first and second-year students, however, it is accessible and its examples are relevant/timely. It does oversimplify critical/interpretive frameworks a bit too much for my liking. But, this can be overcome with a bit of creativity on the instructor's part.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat buy!
By BCC on August 9, 2010
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I signed up for a course in the summer and of course the bookstore at my university did not order enough books for the 12 of us taking the course. I shopped around on Amazon and found this seller. I ordered the book on a Thursday and received it Saturday. I will definitely order from this seller again. I would highly recommend her as well. The book was in good condition. It had a few highlighted areas and a few bent corners...but that was about it.

This book wasn't really that detailed but had to use it because it was for a class. If your into this stuff than take a look at it.
