NOTE ABOUT TEXTBOOK: You must have the "bundle" that comes with MindTap in order to complete assignments; do not purchase the e-book alone without MindTap.
If you plan to purchase Cengage Unlimited, make sure you purchase the option that comes with MindTap. Cengage Unlimited gives you semester access (4 months) to any Cengage title. If you have other classes using Cengage books, this may be a better option.
