I purchased this hard back, not bad for the condition. A couple of pages are torn, so I had to tape them together. A friend of mine, purchase her book (same one) from another book company, for less price and perfect condition. I may have to look into that company for books instead.

Good Book
This book was a requirement for 1 of my classes. Very informative, and easy to read. The Cd-rom was a nice touch. I wish I had more of a chance to read the book in its entirety.
