Don't take our word for it, here's what others are saying about this online course-book:
"The best part of the online book was the convenience. I could access it from my laptop, desktop and mobile. Another favorite part were the videos. I am more of a visual learner so lots of photos with explanations were a great educational tool for me. Thank you for such a wonderful class." Connie
"During my 4 years as an undergraduate, I've never been able to finish an entire textbook until I came across this gem. The contents are straight to the point and well organized. Bonus points for it being mobile friendly. It was easy to read when I was commuting to school or using the cardio machines at the gym! Definitely a worthwhile purchase!" Sabrina T.
