This is a tough subject to learn, no doubt about it. The author does something rare for a college textbook--she balances a whole lot of information in a very easy to learn workbook format. You don't read this book so much as you go through it with a pencil and write out the exercises. This can take a long time, but if done, one can get a good grade in the class. More, this book comes with a pack of flashcards that help A LOT. Keep this book to use as a reference when the class is done.

BE FORWARNED Our book did NOT include the cd rom or the flashcards. It was the correct book and it arrived quickly, but I had to return it to Amazon because even though it was the correct ISBN# the additional items were missing.
