The book came damaged the paper around the binding is ripping off but beside that it has been great. I hope that I do not have to pay for the damage I did not do
This book was required for one of my university courses and it was surprisingly poorly written. As well, the index is terrible.
Pretty encompassing narrative for an intro EXSC class. Used it some, probably should have used it more.
Book was for my course. Price was best I found and delivery was lightning fast
