 Good book, bad quality press March 10, 2010
B. Downs (Grayslake, IL USA)
This review is merely to comment on the printing quality of my book. My book looks like someone took the original, and photocopied it in black and white, and then bound it with a glossy cover. Based on the tables in the chapters and break out text boxes, there used to be light coloring or shading. This is not the case in the text book I bought, which has grainy/fuzzy tables that are in shades of black or white, or grey. Overall, I'm not super impressed with the publishing quality based on the price I paid for the book, since it was new.
I've never have issues with Amazon before, but I'm disappointed with what I got this time.
 OVER-Priced and over rated February 21, 2010
Richard B. Sweeney
The entire class in Graduated Management were ready to cancel the course because of the book.Like reading the Wall Street Journal.It's firstly overpriced like near US $200.00 with taxes etc. I got mine at Amazon for $104.00 Used plus tax and shipping.The University will change to another text book next time around because too many are complaining.NOT RECOMMENDED!
 Great Text February 12, 2010

This text is very well written and is easy to read and understand. I'm definately not a "math person", but this text begins at such a fundamental level and is so thorough that even I am doing well in my online course.
