[Micah · Rating 5 out of 5]

Should be required text for all upper high school and college students to read.

[April · Rating 1 out of 5]

This has to be the absolute worst textbook I have ever had to read. It is written as though the author wants to win a fiction novel award. It is a serious struggle to get through the material, as it was not written in the typical text format, and there are no identifiers or emphasizes on important information.

Biased and terribly written. Suck a fat one

Still as fun and fresh and full of statistics as I remember.
