Who wants to spend a lot of money on a texbook for summer class? Anyway, I paid less than $15.00 (shipping included)for this book. When I told my class mates after I ordered it, they all thought I was crazy and too cheap. They laughed at me and promised me that I would regret it when the book arrives. They were so wrong! First of all it arrived on time and it looked exactly as the seller had described it. It had a lot of highlighting but it was all important topics. It made it easy for me to find the important points! Yes, it looked used but it was all intact and neat too! Oh, did I mention that my class mates felt so sorry that they paid too much for theirs? By the way they bought theirs used too. The seller was very honest about the condition of the book and I must say that it looked far better than I had anticipated. I strongly recommend this seller.

I purchased this product for a college course and am thoroughly pleased with it. Though used, all the pages are intact with no tears or dog eared corners, and the binding and front and back covers are in excellent condition. The content of the book is great as well, with plenty of images and detailed explanations of all sociological terminology and situations, plus a lot of graphs, charts etc., highlighting the material being covered. The chapter reviews are really helpful, and overall, whether for a class or just as an interest read, this book is a wonderful addition to anybody’s bookshelf.
