| Instructor's comments about the book list: Greetings, you can find a 39.99 rental at Vital Source, and likely elsewhere. The most recent edition, the 7th, is the most expensive, so go for copies from the 4th to the 6th editions. You might also find combined editions (both volumes 1 and 2), or brief editions. If you can't find just the 2nd volume, you can opt for one of these two choices if necessary. |
