I haven’t actually looked inside too much but I can say that it I was a great price when I purchased it. I need this book for Grad school this fall and it was twice as much at the school’s bookstore. It was even more money at the bookstore to rent it for the semester. This one was also cheaper than the digital version. I am the type of person who wants it in paper form so that I can flip pages and highlight easily. I am very glad I found this book on here. I will check here for all other books needed for my classes. Thank you!
