This book came promptly and it was in supurb condition! Very happy with this purchase. I was a little concerned seeing as though it was one of the first books i had to purchase for college but I am very happy!

The book and cd were in great condition. The book was exactly what I was looking for and met my needs perfectly.

It came on time but some pages were bent and the pic is misleading

Good quality, I just didn't need it.

The pages were folded. They were also written on and highlighted...good condition to me should be a bit better than that that.
