Textbooks

Sometimes schools don’t provide a helpful textbook, provide only an online textbook, or provide no textbook at all. In these situations, we recommend purchasing a used textbook for the course. Here is our list of effective and affordable used textbooks. These make an excellent resource for learning and practicing content even if they do not align perfectly with your school’s curriculum.

Real, paper textbooks are helpful in numerous ways, and research shows students learn better from paper textbooks than electronic textbooks.

If you don’t find what you need here, search Amazon for an affordable, used copy of the textbooks you need.
