NUTRITION: CONCEPTS AND CONTROVERSIES is available with the MindTap learning platform, which offers self-quizzing and activities to propel your learning from memorization to mastery.

A.C. · February 1, 2024

The book came in in good condition as stated, so no problem there. Our only issue was that the book was ordered on Monday afternoon showing delivery the following Sunday-Tuesday, the book was not even shipped until that Tuesday afternoon (8 days after being ordered) so we did not get it in the timeframe we were told. Once shipped on Tuesday, we got it Wednesday, but why wait 8 days to ship the book?
