Although it took a little longer than I had hoped to receive the book, it arrived in perfect condition. It was the best buy on this textbook that I found anywhere on the net.

They never got in touch with me by phone or email, no refund, NOTHING!!! Now I have a book I don't need and had to go spend an additional $95 on the RIGHT book! I will not order books from online for graduate school again!!!!!

Everything great other than shipping. September 19, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I live in an area where I have to have a P.O.Box and there is no secure physical address. I had high hopes that the package would be sent through the USPS. I received a shipping confirmation the day it was supposed to arrive and had to contact buyer to find out it was shipped UPS. They can not ship to my address so I had to drive 20 miles out to pick up the package. It is frustrating not knowing which shipping option is going to be chosen and not really having a choice over it. Payed for expedited shipping only to find myself receiving the package 10 days overdue and having to drive to get it.

Great textbook! August 25, 2008
This textbook is well written. It catches your attention with case studies and then in a way that makes sense, teaches the concepts.

I used this text in a MSW program HBSE class. It was easy to read and a good informative source on basic human development. Each chapter has questions and intensive vocabulary which was helpful.
