This Racket is Ridiculous!
The Girl is taking some more concurrent and distance-ed courses this semester to finish her Associates Degree along with her high school diploma. One of her classes is a psychology course. The course description sounds very fascinating. But she has had a hard timing tracking down the book. so I told her I'd do some hunting while she was in school yesterday. I found it. This is what it looks like:
It isn't the greatest shot, but I think you can tell this is essentially a glorified magazine. And it cost *cough* *choke* $88. Yes. That is right. $88. This is a 2nd edition, so the 1st edition, which The Girl found online for about $7 wasn't the "right" book. Yikes.
The only upside that I can find here--about the book situation, at least--is that the used book sellers were very insistent that she sell it back to them when she's done with it. Let's just hope there isn't a 3rd edition out by then.
