I decided to buy this book because I needed the text for a Thermodynamics class. I could have purchased it new or used through the university bookstore but they were asking quite a lot. I looked online and found this international version for at least a fourth the price of the new US version. According to federal law, so long as I use the book for person benefit I can purchase the international version without any conflict or local restrictions. It is the exact same book and I've loved the savings. International books are the way to go!
I bought the book because it's required for my engineering class. Overall, the book is very detail in explaining terms and concept, which makes the reader understand the idea better. Also it has cartoon-ish picture in popular/ important key concept. There is no major things that I dislike. Only it is only black, white and orange in color.
I'm using it as a tool for studying and it has explained away a few of my problems. As a study guide it helped explain enthalpy easier than any of my other books. I also like the F.E. question and answer part at the end of chapter. I'd buy another of this for other of my engineering classes.

Great book for a great price. Its only downfall is that it does not have any of the English Unit tables or review questions involving English units. The book's text is exactly the same as the U.S. version however, so if you can get the review questions from a friend, you will be set.
The text in the book is identical to the english version but the problems are most definitely different!! Ended up I had to buy the english book anways... if your going to buy be cautious of what your intended use will be.
This book is almost exactly the same as the original text. The only difference is that the problems at the end of the chapters are different. There are no english unit problems.
Had to have the book for a college course. The textbook was what I needed, has helped a lot for the Thermodynamics 2 class I'm in.
Well there is not really much I can say about the book but it was just what I needed. It was nice to get a book for cheaper than that in the bookstore that was affordable.
