 Interesting. Thanks for the recommendation. I didn't realize renting was an option. That is news to me.

 @wrx7m I think if the book can be considered a "text book", it has the rental option on Amazon.

 @scottalanmiller Yeah, I did that too, but the payback was so small compared to the cost of the books. College textbooks are such a scam.
