that you can reserve your books on-line!
which is not a bad idea, because, although enough books
were ordered for students in this class, these books are
very popular, and other people tend to buy them, causing
shortages... You can also compare prices at http://www.bookhq.com/ or http://www.chambal.com/ or other sites on the WWW. You will find these books less expensively on the Internet.

Please note that this edition is different from earlier editions.
