Average Customer Rating:

Very Good	Customer Rating:
I found the book to be very well written. I was never good with biology in school but this book really explains things so I get it. It is a great resource for an online course. Lots of review and reinforcements. Many opportunities to quiz yourself. Like how you have more than one medium to learn from, the book and the cd.

Needed Fast for School

Customer Rating:

This product came to me fast and in excellent condition. My college has ran out of these books and I got tired of waiting for them to come in, so I ordered it up here. I ordered it on a Thrusday night and recieved it on Monday morning. Of course, I had to pay for extra shipping. Even still with the addition shipping charge, the book was still $20 cheaper than my bookstore, which is awesome when your a college student on a fixed budget.

Terrible experience

Customer Rating:

I purchased the product 5/26/2008 and the latest estimated delivery date was June 10th. I hadn't realized this until I had already ordered the item. The 'track your packages" link informed me that my item had not yet been shipped (even though it had already charged to my account) so I quickly e-mailed the seller because I needed the book ASAP not by June 10th. I informed them that I would willingly pay more for expedited shipping and made them aware of the situation on multiple occasions. They failed to email me back until late in May, asking if I was still interested in their product. I said no because I had already purchased it elsewhere. Instead of paying the price of the product I paid it twice, to this seller and another. I have since had to file a claim with Amazon to get my money back and I still have not received the book. I am no longer interested in it of course but I believe the seller did not handle the situation well and I am still waiting for my money back. Don't buy from them!!
