Reader Reviews
When reading the book, I find it vague. Of course, it's just a college text but I need to learn from it as well. Also, I have to answer questions from the back of the chapters and I can't find the answers in the chapters AT ALL!! The people in my class get frustrated as well as myself because we have to find other resources to look for the answer when it should be referenced in our book.
