I REFUSE to be bullied by the school and the publishers. I had to pay $175 for my Calculus book, and $190 for my Physics book. Both are intended to be used for multiple semsters (Calc for 3 and Physics for 2). However, they change editions and try to get you to buy the new one. F THAT. I will NOT do it. I just use the old edition -- and NOTHING changed -- and if they won't let me (which never happens), I just say, "fine, I'll take the course at a different college -- so f*ck you, and your racket!"
