This review is from: Sociology, Ninth Edition (Hardcover)

WRONG its hard to follow along in class because the pages are different it takes a minute to find and catch up with the class if the teacher says page 79 it may be on page 139. All of the maps and charts are different and I don't have any of the short stories in my book that the proffessor likes to go over. I have to put in a some extra work if you don't mind I say get it's alot cheaper!
