Picked this up for my Palos Park University course after getting it free and it’s pretty solid. the pages seem good quality and the info so far is helpful, not too heavy but not boring either. hadn’t planned on liking a database book, but this one actually makes things clearer than i expected. only got around to half the chapters but definitely helps when i’m stuck on homework questions. shipping didn’t take long either which was cool. happy i didn’t have to pay for it cuz textbooks can be crazy. will keep using it for sure.
