Even when you know what textbook(s) you're supposed to get, there are so many options that it can seem overwhelming. Check out the information on this page to find out the differences between the various book format options, how to make sure you have the right book(s), and how to know you're getting good value for your money.

Edition: unlike most fiction books and many non-fiction books, textbooks often have edition numbers. Different editions of a textbook will usually have the same title, at least one or more of the same authors, and similar overall content to the other editions. The differences might include the number of pages, number of chapters, organization of the chapters, specific homework questions/problems, etc. Later editions (with higher edition numbers and later copyright years) could reflect changes in research/technology, updated/newer case studies, updated references (e.g. dial-up vs. Wifi, VHS vs. DVD).

*When you look at the information provided for your textbooks, there will always be an ISBN, and there might be an edition number (if applicable). To make the best use of your textbook(s), match both the ISBN and edition number (if applicable).

Which is better--print books or ebooks? Choosing between a print or ebook is largely a matter of personal preference, although cost is a factor for many students. Ebooks tend to be cheaper because they are less expensive to produce and distribute. So you'll want to consider several factors when making the decision about which type of book to get for your school textbooks.

Ebook Rental: Almost all ebooks are available for short-term access--which is essentially the same as renting a print textbook for a set period of time. Instead of needing to return a rented ebook--you will no longer have access after the expiration date.

A. The governing board shall approve for common schools the course of study, the basic textbook for each course and all units recommended for credit under each general subject title before implementing the course.

C. If any course includes a basic textbook and uses supplemental books, the governing board may approve all supplemental books and teaching aids, including instructional computer software, that are used in the course before approving the course.

D. If the course includes a basic textbook and uses supplemental books that have not been approved by the governing board at the time of approval of the course, a teacher may use the supplemental books at any time during the school year. Use of the supplemental books shall be brought to the attention of the governing board during the school year in which they are added for ratification.

1. Enforce the course of study and select all textbooks used in the common schools and purchase the textbooks from the publishers. The governing board may budget and spend district school monies for teaching aids, including instructional computer software. For courses that do not require that each student have a textbook other than for classroom instruction, the school district need only purchase one textbook for each student in the largest group that would be receiving classroom instruction at any one time.

3. Make available at the school district office for review by the public, for a period of sixty days prior to formal selection of textbooks, a copy of each textbook that is being considered for selection.

H. For the purposes of this section, "textbook" means printed instructional materials or digital content, or both, and related printed or nonprinted instructional materials, that are written and published primarily for use in school instruction and that are required by a state educational agency or a local education agency for use by pupils in the classroom, including materials that require the availability of electronic equipment in order to be used as a learning resource.

Initially funded as a generous gift by the Women's Giving Circle, the BNC Textbook Lending Library has over 2,000 textbooks for students to check out for an entire academic term for free. This library is an ongoing contribution from current and past students donating their books after use. You can give your old textbooks new life by donating them to our lending library any time of year.

In addition to textbooks, this program also includes calculators (including graphing calculators), chemistry molecule kits, lab goggles and other essential course materials. At the start of each term, a limited number of TopHat classroom codes are available.

A couple weeks prior to the start of each (non-summer) term, the BNC opens up textbook requests. The request form allows students to ask for up to three books we do not currently have in our library. When purchased, the requester is notified by email and the book is placed on hold for them for a few days so they can have first dibs on checking it out.

If you need a hard copy textbook and do not see it when you search for it in our library, we invite you to submit a request! Submit by Dec. 11th and they will be ready at the start of the term. Please note that if you have requested books from us before, we no longer have two deadline options for ordering and will only be able to order items requested by that date.

Textbooks can be ... problematic for neuroscientists. Neuroscience is a relatively new field of study, and as we ease into a century of active research, the pace of new discoveries is far outstripping the ability of those discoveries to be printed in a textbook. And if the function of a textbook is to collect the fundamental principles of a field, (to paraphrase first year graduate student Alex Scharr), there just hasn't been enough time to figure out whether neurosciences "fundamental" discoveries are actually fundamental. Or even accurate.

For a textbook similar to the one used in high school biology classes, there are 2 that are generally regarded as the most thorough, and well written. These books are Eric Kandel's Principles of Neural Science*, and Larry Squire's Fundamental Neuroscience.* The latter is recommended reading for the Neuroscience/Neuroanatomy course that Stanford Medical students take (and I think is used by undergrad courses as well).

*Each of these textbooks were edited by a team of individuals, so technically, Principles of Neural Science is Kandel's, plus Schwartz's, Jessell's, Siegelbaum's and Hudspeth's. Larry Squire likewise shares the editorial crown with Berg, Bloom, du Lac, Ghosh and Spitzer.

After I sent Gabby the above recommendations, she wrote back, commenting that many of the textbooks are quite expensive. I thought this was an excellent point, and set out to find an adequate substitute for a pricey textbook. After a spot of internet searching, I found an open access online neuroscience textbook, created by some folks over at the University of Texas. While the writing may not be as elegant as the Kandel or Squire books, it does contain the same basic information. Here is the link to the online textbook.

My recommendation for any high school student like Gabby, is to get started with the online textbook, see if anything catches your particular interest, and then look into specific books or journal review articles that cover that area of interest.

Also, non-fiction books do tend to be a little less expensive than formal textbooks. Additional suggestions include: Carl Zimmer's Brain Cuttings (ebook), Susan Blackmore's Conversations of Consciousness (the first neuroscience book I ever read), anything written by Oliver Sacks, and Incognito by David Eagleman. Many of these you may find at your local library.

For students enrolled in the basic communication course, their primary source for information about communication apprehension comes from the course textbook. Previous researchers have content analyzed textbooks for their coverage of communication apprehension in public speaking textbooks, but none have compared hybrid textbooks and public speaking textbooks. Twenty basic communication course textbooks, ten hybrid and ten public speaking, were analyzed for how they address communication apprehension. Results were consistent with previous research regarding communication apprehension in public speaking textbooks, noting few changes over the past 30 years. Implications for the basic communication course, along with suggestions for future research regarding communication apprehension are discussed.

I wonder whether Igor Pak's "Lectures on Discrete and Polyhedral Geometry" might be appropriate as a textbook for an undergraduate geometry course. This is still in preliminary form, available on his website. In the introduction he describes a selection of topics from the book that could be used for a basic undergraduate course. There seem to be lots of exercises, and at a quick glance a lot of the topics look quite interesting. This whole subject is way outside my expertise, however, so I have no idea if the book would make a good basis for a course like the one you'll be teaching.

Last semester I taught (at Colby College) a geometry course based on two books: Bonahon's "Low dimensional geometry" and Schwartz's "Mostly Surfaces". Both are relatively inexpensive as far as textbooks go, so I could require both from the students. The students really enjoyed reading both books simultaneously as the authors have very different styles but some overlap of content. The students would certainly need to know some linear algebra in addition to multivariable calculus. The course was challenging, but reasonably successful at helping students develop some "geometric imagination" and proof-writing skills.

I like Euclidean and Non-Euclidean Geometries: Development and History by Marvin J. Greenberg. I will warn you: it is certainly an axiomatic treatment. However, I really enjoyed the way that the book develops it. For example, the distinction between the axioms of a geometry and theorems you can prove about them, versus the models of geometry and their various properties, is clearly drawn. I dare say that, despite how advanced your undergraduates feel, they will learn a lot about the axiomatic method from this book. I recommend that you give it a look; even if it is not the primary textbook for the course, you can use it as a convenient source of motivation, problems, examples, and history. (There is a lot of history in this book, and many exercises.) e24fc04721
