It is more interesting to read than some other textbooks but, for that very reason, it is so time consuming to read. It is just packed with great information! The pictures always make me smile!
Excellent quality, received it quickly and in wonderful condition. Fulfilled my course textbook requirement.
Required book for class, it was a pretty good read.
thorough book, have only read very little though.
