3 out of 5 stars A little confusing September 7, 2008

We received this item in a timely manner, however the listing said hardcover and it was actually paperback. That's a bit of a difference. We kept it anyway.

I am not qualified to judge the contents of this book. I do have some criticisms of the book itself and some ideas how it could be more easily published.

The time has not yet come for electronic textbooks. This book, though, is the tipping point for me to decide that not only are e-textbooks inevitable but necessary. This book is extremely heavy and unwieldy. I would like to see this company publish the book in two volumes. The problem would be the lack of appendices from volume to volume. But the benefits would outweigh these.

The sheer amount of paper is mind boggling. Knowing that this is the number one selling biology textbook on Amazon just makes me wonder how much paper is devoted to this text throughout the country. How many tons I mean, not sheets. I would like to see Amazon make a larger model of the Kindle that would allow the reading of textbooks in the larger format. Imagine downloading your textbook on the first day of class from the teachers computer rather than waiting in line at the bookstore... of course the problem with e-books is that there is no such thing as a 'used' e-book.

As far as ordering from Amazon, as usual the book arrived in great shape. I will order from them again (and again) whenever possible.
