Description
This market leading text has undergone a both a major update and a pedagogical facelift. In preparing for this new edition the authors combed through each chapter and made the updating of information a major focus. They have also taken major steps in preparing the material in a more student friendly fashion. They have built in chapter summaries, provided practice questions and reduced the number of bibliographic entries. The addition of a student study guide provides even stronger student ties in the 5th edition.
