I purchased this book for my health class. Although the class required the regular version, this international version was a lot cheaper and had the exact same material (word for word)! The only difference was the book cover.
I really recommend it to college students who are seeking for this book for a class like myself. I also recommend it to the general public because it gives a lot of great information regarding health (obviously), it's history, and really leaves you thinking about yourself and the world. I read almost the entire book.
