I ordered this book !2/3 and expected it by 12/26 but it still has not arrived.
somebody took my $77.oo so it is only reasonable to expect to get the book.
I RECEIVED ALL of the other orders by 12/6 adn actually thought I would get the College mathematics for Business, Economics, Life Sciences & social Sciences book sooner too but upon further inquiry I discovered it would not arrived until about 12/6-12/16. it is a no show so far.
Can anyone help me? get the book or get my money back.

I was disappointed with this purchase because I ordered it express because I needed it in a hurry for school, and not everything was included with it.

I ordered 3 books for my MBA and AMAZON managed to lose the package 2x. I will admit the prices were right and spot on. The orginal shipment was lost and I asked for a reshipment. That was sent and lost as well. I recieved the books 2x after both shipments were found. I was meet with excuses such as, I am sorry that person is not here it is the weekend or I am sorry we can not send you another shipment. I told them I did not lose the shipments they did. They did not seem to care. Also after the books finally came I recieved a phone call within 24 hours telling me to send them back or I will be charged. I told them they were lost and I only just got them. This did not seem to phase them.
I am not sure I will use Amazon ever again

I used this textbook in my “business math” course.
The course covered material that I’d already mastered in high school, so I rarely used this book.
When I had to look up a few fuzzy areas, though, it helped me. It did a poor job of explaining Chapter 7, as I recall.
