  • Cheapest you'll find

    Unfortunately, there are no pirated versions of this book floating around on both public trackers or private trackers. As a student, I'm always trying to find the cheapest book possible, and this is BY FAR (to date) the cheapest copy of this you will find. On my campus they're selling "used" copies of these from $90 upwards to $160. I got the textbook within minutes of ordering it and after I comfirmed it is a PDF file via the messaging system on eBay.

  • A bargain for an expensive book

    This book was needed for my daughter's class. Prices ranged from $150 to $200 for new and $50 for used. I couldn't find a digital copy. I was overjoyed to find this digital copy of the exact book that was needed.

  • Awesome!

    I didn’t think this was actually going to work out, since I’ve never bought online pdf version of books. I ordered it last night and got it today in the morning! I do recommend and I’m so happy because I didn’t have to buy the book itself anymore because they’re so expensive. But great deal!

  • Almost new, if it were not for the packaging.

    The condition of the book could have been better if it was not shipped in box about 8 times as big for the book. The book suffered some damaged due to packing and handling. Other than that, it could have been perfect.
