Just received this new paperback edition. I assumed it would be bound. Instead, this is an unbound paperback book for use in a three-ring binder. In addition, no references and no glossary are included which in a book such as this is unforgivable, given the almost $170 price tag. The book claims these are available online or for the e-version. Very disappointed! Read more

I got this book for class as used and I was very satisfied with how it came in. The book is easy to read and there were no marks on the pages. Read more
