Our primary text for this COM 104 is a book provided through open educational resources library system.  Since this text is an open sourced book, you will not have to pay any money for it.  

The text is available to download in multiple formats from the University of Minnesota website by clicking the link above or here.  

Please note that this text is rather large, and will likely be a huge print job if you choose to print the whole thing at once.  In addition, throughout this semester, I will be providing shorter PDF Chapters of the text on a weekly basis that may be more manageable to print.  There are also a number of options to read this text through kindle apps and other devices.
