Customer Reviews

Be Wary - Joseph Hackett - Michigan, USA
When I purchased this book, it came brand new, in a shrinkwrap with a Speech Preparation Workbook by Cynthia Brown El. Upon opening it in class, I found that the book had no binding at all, and the cover itself was just cardboard placed on top to make it presentable. Once I discovered this, it was too late to return it. The bookstore wouldn't take it back, even in the mint condition I had it in (given that that the teacher rarely ever asked us to use the books, it became a lovely predicament).

So, I'm writing this review to warn you; purchase this book only if you believe you're getting your money's worth - because you may never get it back.



No Access Code - S. Ruch -
The book itself is fine, but if you are buying this for a course that requires use of Myspeechlab, please be aware that it does not include an access code. You'll have to shell out an extra for one on the Myspeechlab site. My bookstore's cost of 5 for both doesn't seem like a bad deal after all....
