Course Books:

     A number of books are required in this course. These will help you to study the material we are covering throughout the semester. Remember that books are study tools and not meant to be passed on to your grand children. USE them!
Getting the books - Several options are available to you:

West Valley Campus: You can simply walk over to our excellent bookstore located on West Valley campus and purchase the items directly. The bookstore also provides an online service in case you do not want to go there in person (WVC bookstore). You can reserve the books to pick them up later or make arrangements for home delivery. Ordering online (new or used):  Book prices are always increasing. Many individuals turn to Amazon.com or Half.com to find the books of choice. Keep in mind that it can take several days to weeks for your books to arrive depending on where it is ordered from. It is your responsibility to access the reading material. However, you can save much money by getting a used copy of a text (yes, LOTS). The following books are being used in our course.  Many more options are available on the web.
