This is a well organized and very instructional textbook. The online component that comes with the purchase of the book is very helpful, especially the video demonstrations. I like how the videos have the option of selecting captions on the screen in order to provide a transcript of all that is said during the presentations.
My order came very fast and in perfect condition. I have just started to read this text to prepare for class week after next. It is efficiently organized and very easy to read. It's size I admit intimidates me but only because it's a text and I'll have three other classes going at the same time. Two thumbs up.
My order came very fast and in perfect condition. It is efficiently and well organized and very easy to read. The book has demonstrations and videos that you can follow along. Also it has practice material online that help you get prepared for the chapter or class. The book is a hardback and it does have a little weight to it.
Order came in on time. Very pleased with the seller. Came with notes and high lights in it as expected. However, it was a bit pricey but when in need of this book I was willing to pay the price. Other than that no complaints. Would buy from seller again.
Perfect condition when I received it. Prompt delivery and exactly what I needed for class. Very pleased.
Really was helpful. I start school in October and I feel that I have got a head start.
I purchased this book for my grand-daughter. She was very pleased with it.
