The bookstore might offer a discount on a package deal for all four
books, or you can buy used books separately.  If you need to defer one
of the purchases, book number (4) above will not be used until after
the fourth week of classes.    The ISBN number for the "package deal"
is 0132217139 


   ****  Availability at local bookstores as of 8/18/2005 ****

As of around noon 8/18/2005, here is the status of these books at the
three main bookstores serving UD students:

UD Main Bookstore: All four books in stock, stocked separately (not packaged).
     Be sure that you get all four, since three of them look very similar, 
     and were "intermixed" on the shelf.

Delaware Book Exchange: They had about 10 copies of the "package deal" on
    the shelf, available for purchase.

Liebermans:  They did not yet have the course in their system, but I 
    provided them the information, and they said they would place an order
    right away.

If you visit any of these bookstores, and have updated information
on whether the books are available, and/or approximately how many are left,
please email it to "pconrad@udel.edu".  I will periodically update this
page based on student feedback.
