Textbook help

Hi, I was recently accepted to EC and I am looking for textbooks. Any suggestions? I looked on ebay and half.com, but they are still pretty pricey. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a few suggestions for you. I've been using campusi.com to look for books. It is a main search engine and will compare different prices for the book you need. Perhaps, for some books, use a later edition of the book. If you can find the previous edition and buy it used, you will probably save more $ that way. Also, you can check out some of the nursing sites on the Yahoo groups. People sell their books after completing courses.

Good luck to you!

What book are you needing?

i used amazon.com for all my books during LPN school and i got some books for as low as $20 at times.

usually on all those book searches, amazon shows up as one of the cheapest sites.

good luck!

You could also try abe.com - it's an association of second-hand book dealers. You can order online, but on occasion I've found books listed on abe that are local, and saved myself the postage :)

Which ones do you need? I've got some for sale as I dropped out of an accelerated BSN program. Some of them are:

Bates Guide to Physical Exam - 8th edition

Fundamentals of Nursing -- 7th edition

Community & Public Health Nursing - 6th edition

MEd-Surg Nursing - 4th edition

Understanding Patho - 3rd edition

Email me or reply if you;re interested I've got others too.
