I received this book along with CD too. I showed this book to many of my friends and no one said it as used book. And I even I asked them to guess the cost of it. Every one was saying this book should cost around 60$ and must not be less than 40$. I GOT IT FOR 3$. TRUE. amazing deal. ALIBRIS is my book shelf.
