Textbook

Shipping was great, but it's a textbook for Biology. It's not something I read for fun.

Inquiry into Life

Very happy to order my son's textbook at a fraction of the cost the school's recommended web site was selling it for. The book was used and of course not in perfect condition, but very useable. Very pleased overall.
