This book was not written very well. I've read a lot of text books in my life, but this one takes the cake. While a lot of the information in it was informative, it was presented in a way that was frankly boring.The way in which chapters were written was bland. Reading this book was an exercise in dedication, yielding no joy in the results. The way pages are set up in the book make them difficult to read for a long period of time.If I could make a suggestion to the authors and publisher of this book, I would tell them to start by looking at the font used to make the book. Times New Roman works in some cases, but for a book of this magnitude, not so much. The words just run together. A very difficult book to read overall.

This was a great alternative to having a paperback book. I like that you can highlight in the pages and make notecards. This is great for studying. I would buy another book like this again.

Great condition

Awesome book. Has beautiful pictures and illustrations. Easy read. Wish all my books were like this.
