MICROBIOLOGY BOOK USED, should I buy the 2nd edition


Hey all!

Last semester I bought Anatomys and Chemistry aditions that were 10 years older than the edition on the book
list, everything was fine, same content, pictures, ect. I am taking Micro, Physio & Psych in Fall and want to
get a jump start. There is a 2nd edition Micro book, 1991 and it's $5.00 total. Has anyone bought an old book
like this is Micro and been unhappy? Has anyone looked at the book? It's Foundations in Micro by Talaro, K.P>

The only problem might be if the instructor assigns review problems from the text for homework and the problems have changed in the new edition. But that can be dealt with by checking against another student's book. If you can get a text for $5, I say go ahead and save that money.
