The book is fine as a lone book if you don't need the access code. If you're buying it for a class, you probably do need the access code.
As noted in the other review, this book as sold by Amazon DOES NOT come with the required online access code. If your class requires the online McGraw-Hill Connect access then you will either have to buy it from them for an additional $45 or buy the book + access code somewhere else.

I took a class that required this book... The big problem was that it didn't come with a code to use the activity center thing on the internet. So i had to spend even more money on that.
