How to Study in College, 5th Edition

This used paperback textbook has obvious wear. There is some damage to the cover but integrity still intact. The binding may be slightly damaged but integrity is still intact. There is a lot of writing in margins, underlining and quite a bit of highlighting of text, but no missing pages or anything that would compromise the legibility or understanding of the text. This was a very well used textbook in a college course.

Over a million students have transformed adequate work into academic achievement with this best-selling text.
