    Thee was originally a bit of a mix-up at the beginning before I got the textbook but after I got it I see why my instructor chose it for this course. It is very readable and easy to find specific parts of each chapter with the headings and the way it is put together. I have read at least half already and it is one of those many books you sometimes have to keep for your personal collection.....

    For anyone wondering, the international version is identical to the 6th edition standard blue cover with circle of hands and feet photograph. Saved me a good amount of money.
