I was VERY PLEASED at the price that Amazon.com offered this textbook as they are unusually expensive. Am using it for a college course and it is very helpful. This edition has lots of extra information from the previous one and, although interesting, sometimes tells too much however, it can be viewed as enrichment...the teacher is not requiring that we know every word of it!
