Great book, almost the same as last edition.
I HATE that textbook publishers print out a new edition, with basicaly the same problems as the last edition (only the numbers change). However, to be fair, this is a very clear book, has good examples that follow the exercies in the book. Probably one of the better accounting books I have seen. Also has some chapters of introduction to finance. Overall would recommend.

There are two reasons to buy this book.
The first reason: you're taking a course and this is the text. The second reason: you are a working professional and think it might be useful. I have comments for each reason. If you are taking a course, there is a good chance you will hate this book. This reminds me a lot of the Feynman Lectures of Physics: rapturously admired by people who have already mastered the material; a bit on the ...

Excellent book
As a nursing student myself, this is an excellent book for those who are going into OB. Easy reading, very informative for OB, but Peds not so much. Other than that, it's an excellent book.

SUPERB, BALANCED REVIEW OF THE NEW TESTAMENT DATA
This book is wonderful! After studying dozens of texts about the origins and modern historical analyses of the New Testament canon--ranging from Helmut Koester's Ancient Christian Gospels to Walter Bauer, Elaine Pagels, and Bart Ehrman's positivistic polemics--I finally found this book. I am a scientist (physician) and have not had the benefit of a seminary education, so I should, perhaps, have ...

Fabu---loows!
A bit pricey, but worth it. Pictures, theory, examples, activities to practice, delegation of techniques for each curriculum area, and applicable to all levels. Need we buy anything else? A used copy is just as good as the new one for almost $60 less.

Awesome book
Great marketing book, even if I didn't have to read it for my class I would have felt that I missed out by not at least skimming it through. Very intriguing and interesting examples of the choices that we make every day and how manufacturers choose which decisions we make to target how things are advertised. I usually hate text books, but this one is a keeper.
Introduction to the Devout Life

, 2002
Truly a useful introduction!
I sought out this book on the advice of a priest and was not expecting the book to as useful as it was! I was immediately drawn into the book as it explained how a devotional life can be integrated into any state of life. I especially was thankful of the effort de Sales puts into explaining what is proper for one to do according to their vocation in life. Though I am Catholic, a Pentecostal ...

Outstanding.
Loads of information / explanations. A little bit of physics but only that necessary. Details how light works, how to photograph glass and metal, and much more. One of my favourite photography books, and so far the ONLY book (I've purchased around 20 photography related books from Amazon) I've been motivated to review on Amazon!

Exceptionally clear explanation of rubrics
I had a basic understanding of grading rubrics before I began, but it wouldn't have mattered, as the authors provide such a clear explanation that I think even someone with no prior knowledge would grasp the concept almost immediately. The book is loaded with examples and a step-by-step walk-through of how to build effective rubrics. Perhaps most importantly, the authors explain why just about ...

Surprsingly Wonderful!
I picked this book up for a class, expecting to be perfectly bored. Instead, this book woke up my sleeping love of learning and literature. The book is easy to understand and contains MANY great stories and poems in it. It also has a great glossary and index was well. It came with an additional feature, MyLiteratureLab, which is an accompanying web page. That is also very helpful indeed. ...

Extremely helpful and easy to understand
I am a somewhat new Christian and have really felt a connection with God since becoming faithful. However, I became wary of Church dogma and completely literal, simplified views of info in the Bible. I knew it had to be deeper than that. I had a hunger to learn more about the history of the New Testament and it's books, letters, etc. to help me better understand it. This book was extremely ...

Superb, Post 9-11 Update, Excellent Adult Foundation
First, it is vital for prospective buyers to understand that the existing reviews are three years out of date--this is a five-star tutorial on international relations that has been most recently updated after 9-11. If I were to recommend only two books on international relations, for any adult including nominally sophisticated world travelers, this would be the first book; the second would be ...

Well worth the money.
I own the 4th edition. I had to make a comment after amazon recommended the 5th. This is a great book. Originally, i was PO'ed at the price. Especially when you get it and its quite thin compared to many texts. I had to get it for APICS. Once you start reading it you find it cuts through all waste. This is not a padded book. It explains concepts in a brief, direct manner. Most importantly ...

A great choice for a high school (AP) statistics course
I am a teacher of AP Statistics (since its inception in 1997) with a master's degree in statistics. I agree with many of the previous reviews that this is NOT a mathematical statistics textbook. If you need a textbook that goes through the mathematics, especially the theory, behind the statistics then you need to look at another textbook. This book was designed for a statistics course for ...

Necessary for class
It may not be the best textbook in the world but its not the worst. Actually, I can't find anything wrong with it except for the coffee stain I left while studying. The text comes with a CD that contains Excel worksheets described in the book. Regardless of whether examples in the book are relevant to everyday life, they explain the situation. Minus one star for not having a study guide to ...
