I looked on the school bookstore website and got a title and author for the book but I'm not sure if I've found the correct book to purchase elsewhere (no way am I paying $175 for it at the school!). If anyone had the class recently and has the text, can you tell me the title or ISBN number? I need to order this book ASAP and I want to make sure I have the correct one :). TIA

Try Amazon.com, they usually have used textbooks for reasonable price. Thats where I usually go. Or try the bookstore across the street from Macomb South Campus, they have the same books there for a few dollars off.
I know where to get them at a lower cost, I just need the correct title or ISBN so I can order it :). I guess I'll call the bookstore or head out to the campus and take a look.

i bought an international edition book for that class this summer....it cost $40 its a lot cheaper because its made outside the U.S...the only difference in the book is it is soft cover....that is if its still the same book....microbiology a human perspective 5th edition by nester....another tip is if you my Dr. Joe i wouldnt worry about the book....i never opened mine because his tests came straight from lecture....if its someone eles i cant offer advice
I drove to the campus bookstore to see for myself which text it was (after emailing pics of the same book to friends who've had the class before but who obviously can't remember the text :trout: ) and saw for myself what I needed to buy. Weird thing, though, I wrote down the ISBNs off of the text (there are two for some reason) and when I plugged them into a search engine nothing came up :uhoh21:. I did find the book at Abe books and ordered it yesterday for $42 including shipping :yelclap:. It has the same title, author and edition so I hope it's the same one. I don't have Dr. Joe for micro , so I think I'll need the book! Thanks for the help :). I guess I need to pay full price for the lab manual, it looked like something you could only get at the school bookstore.
