    Yep.

    They are usually cheaper. Most are paperbacks (in my experience). The only difference I have found is some times they are different colored (ie text or pictures... for example one was red text, when normal text was black, and other had b & w pictures vs color).

    you may check out the used books earlier you purchase them for ripped pages and ink blots. yet paying for used is the thanks to flow. Why spend more beneficial for a textbook you may no longer even favor or may have in effortless words used 10 pages of it contained in the completed twelve months? when you get a sparkling e book it is going to develop into used, so that you're merely turning out to be more beneficial used books. And if highlighter's a difficulty and also you want to spotlight issues for your self, underline with black pen or use a diverse colour highlighter.

    I got several paperback textbooks from Pakistan; they don't sell them here, but they were SO much cheaper. They were the same - as long as you get it in English and the same edition.
