 Rating:  - Not impressedSeeing as I purchased this for a textbook for a college class I expected it to be factual. And I was reading the textbook as though it was based purely on science. Up until I got to the chapter that included "spirituality", discussed god as a necessity to wellness and promoted abstinance only sex education. Um, let's take religion out of textbooks, please. Because when I got to that part, I hence concluded that the entire textbook was not at all scientific. Too bad. Rating:  - Thank you!My book arrived very quickly and it was in perfect condition. Thank you for all your help! Rating:  - AverageThis book was "average" for a textbook. The graphs and charts are excellent, however the author is not very engaging while presenting the material.
