This review is from: Holt Physical Science California Edition (Hardcover)

I was told that this book would be new and it was new. Not a spot on it. I have a son with a learning disability and I like to have him text books at home so that I can get ahead of his teachers. I am so happy to be able to do this and not pay full price for these very expensive books. I love that this product was exactly like it was described 'NEW'.
