Book Review: Buy 11th Edition instead of 12th edition
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the 11th edition for a class the required the 12th edition. The newer edition was so much more expensive. I began to sweat on the first day of class when the professor stated "No substitutions, no exception." Then he assigned the questions at the end of the chapter as homework... More sweating. However, the book is nearly identical to 12th edition. Even the review questions at the end of the chapter are the same. Items to note that are different:
11th edition has a cd that will only play in your computer, where as 12th edition has an interactive dvd.
Chapter 7 and chapter 8 are flip-flopped.
11th edition has more pictures than the 12th edition, so sometimes I was a page or two behind in page numbers.
Highly recommend buying the 11th edition instead of the 12th in this instance... I hate when textbooks come out with new editions costing students more money, but make no real improvements!
