4.0 out of 5 stars Little wear when it came, but still great condition.

This is a insightful well written textbook. I purchased for a semester of humanities and I can say that I used this book for everything in the class. If one reads the chapters, they should have no problem with the work given in their class. Assuming that their class relies heavily on the books like mine did. This book came with one scuffed edge and tarnished front cover, but it's not too bad. It came within the time it was supposed to and helped immensely. I would recommend this book to anyone with a humanities class that this subject pertains too.

I got this book needing it for a summer class and was delivered on time. However, I was dropped from the course because they did not have enough students to run the course so I had to return the book. Even though I did not need the book I still enjoyed the great customer service that I received for having to return it. They gave me a full refund no problem.

I got this book for a class but I kept it as a resourse book. It is easy to read and gives a lot of information in a readable format. The pictures give the reader a sense of being there.
