Customer Reviews

Great content, but . . .

The content of this book is very good and is going to be helpful to me. I am disappointed that it’s missing the first chapter. Very strange. The first chapter was not torn out, but simply isn’t there. An issue the printing, I guess. It’s not a show stopper, but would be nice to start at the beginning. The rest of the book’s content looks great.

Missing Chapter 1

I was happy about the price, but my book was missing the first chapter out of it. I’ll take the L considering how cheap it was! Thank you.

Great deal!

My daughter needed this book for class and I located it for much less than the bookstore prices.

Very Satisfied

I was very pleased with the speedy delivery of the math book as well as the condition that it was sent to me. The condition was just as the seller described. There were no surprises. I will do business with the seller again in the future. I'm a satisfied customer. Thanks alot!!!
