5 out of 5 stars

Functional and economical
I bought this book at the beginning of the 2009 Fall-semester. It was my first experience with an international textbook, but it won't be my last. The book arrived in it's original shrink-wrap with all accessories. The book contained all the material/information contained in its United States (U.S.) counterpart, plus some additional information that proved extremely useful. Yet with all this, the cost was less than two-thirds that of the U.S. version. The only (and minuscule at that) problem I encountered was a slight misalignment with some of the chapter information in relation to the U.S. textbook version. For those economically minded students (like me), I recommend this international textbook without any reservations.

Great book. If you are going for a maters degree, this book is a must have. Sometimes it gets boring but the concepts are real and helpful in practice.
