This book... So much to say about this textbook.
This book taught me that any concerns I have ever had for my college career, I had no reason to worry. For example, it told me that, "thinking helps in many situations" (a direct quote). It's wonderful to know that this book wants to tell me the most practical knowledge, knowledge that I have already learned because of common sense. It also gives helpful tip like "college is expensive" and "sleep is good for you". This book is chock full of things you already know, and it never ceases to amaze how much basic knowledge they can shove into a textbook and sell it for a ridiculous amount of money.
