I bought this textbook to be used in class I would be taking at the local Technical College. The textbook came when I needed it. The book was in great condition considering it's a textbook. The information in the textbook was awesome. The seller did a good job of keeping it in good condition. The price of the textbook was a reasonable. I plan on buying more textbooks from the seller.
