I was forced to read this book in Freshman year, and I did so--complete with Advil to ward off the migraines and eye drops for my red eyes after all-nighters before tests. Suffice to say that it was miserable, in the process of learning the material.

Afterwards, though, I gained a great apprecation for this book. I just graduated from High School and went back to a Freshman classroom and bought the book off some grateful kid for ten bucks. I've begun to read it again, this time with a much more learned perspective.

Love this book, love what it taught me.

Could have been more reader-friendly (eg: jokes) but the content was interesting enough, and presented in a readable fashion. :)

I'm glad to say I own this book! ( )

The all hailing textbook for AP. Read it. It's necessary.... and boring. ( )
