About this product
Product Information
The name George Gershwin is a magical one. It conjures up the Twenties, Broadway glitter, beauty and extravagance. Begin humming a Gershwin tune anywhere from Boston to Bangkok and someone will finish it for you: Rhapsody in Blue, Summertime, Lady Be Good, An American in Paris , to name a few. Called Mr. Music by his contemporaries, Gershwin (18981937) was a musical genius whose life epitomizes the American success story. The son of Russian-Jewish immigrants, he was raised on the Lower East Side and never finished high school, yet grew up to become rich, famous, and the intimate of celebrities. Although George Gershwin's life was cut short by illness over sixty years ago, he is probably better known today than ever before. And yet too often he is the subject more of popular invention than of truth. In Gershwin: His Life and Music , author Charles Schwartz attempts to redress this imbalance by separating fact from myth. The result is an extraordinarily fascinating and honest account of the man who created such beauty that he became a legend in his own time.

Hello,
I received your package today with a book I did not order. I ordered Museum marketing and you sent Python for Data Analysis. That is very dishonsest and not reliable selling practice. I want my money back in full with shipping costs, 13,19£ on my credit card I paid with. Otherwise I will file a complaint at Ebay. Obviously I am not paying for sending your book back. I you want it back, thanks for sending a prepaid label. Pictures are proof in attachment.

Ganong was a fantastic Physiology Book I used nearly 50yrs ago when a medical student. It was brilliant, clear and had an incredibly readable font. Thought I'd do a bit of quick revision. The updated 26th edition retails at about £68 and this 2010 23rd edition was just under £7. Different font - but as good as ever. Maybe slightly out of date but it'll do me nicely as a reference book. The book was an ex-library book - but was in good nick (with a plastic cover) and arrived promptly. 5 star!
