If you need this book for a school course, beware this international edition is substantially different from the U.S. edition of the textbook. Chapters are different, much text left out or added in. The problems that might be homework are VERY different (say, 25 problems in U.S. edition, only 10 in International).
For the price, it was worth a try. But I ended up having to spring for the U.S. edition anyway to get through the class.
