RE: Good Reading?
ROCK, That book by Hoffman looks rare as chicken teeth! Where did you find it?
PRGONZALEZ, I was seriously considering Fundamentals by Anderson especially after I discovered several India-based book dealers are selling the "International" version (black & white, paperback) on theBay for $30 shipped! That's a great deal for a brand new 1000 page textbook! I'll probably buy it after I get through the two I just bought.
Off-topic: $160 vs. $10 just makes me cringe at how publishers like McGraw-Hill, Wiley, Houghton/Mifflin are still totally abusing the American college student. It was a problem 40 years ago and now its even worse!
