i only say no to recommend this book because i have been told that as of the end of this semester the school will no longer use this textbook. other wise it find it a good book if you want to buy it for personal development. even if its out dated. i am satisfied with the service i received from this company and if they have texts i can use in the future i will certainly use them again.
