Reflection
Of all the “text books” I have used throughout my college years, I must admit this site and its online textbooks, magazines, and emails has led this textbook to be the most utilized book and tool I have ever bought. Reading the textbook online has made the readings quicker, more convenient, and more useful than past textbooks. I will no doubt continue subscribing to their magazines and emails for years to come.
