Great book, but late. by K. L. Heyward  3 Stars
September 18, 2009
I think that it is awesome for me to be taking a class with the professor who actually wrote the text and I am excited about that. Just feel that it took way too long for the textbook to get to me. Seems like almost three weeks went by before I recieved it. I tryed to order it in a timely manner to ensure that I received it before the course started, but I still did not get it until two weeks after the semester had began. I emailed the seller to find out what was the hold-up, but never recieved a response.
