awesome book

This book is exactly what I needed to get refreshed. Its awesome. Fast delivery.

Great!

Had to purchase this book for a college class. From what I have noticed between Edition 2 and Edition 3, this edition is much more user friendly. Not as much jumping around, everything is more in order.
