My book for class

I'm starting a basic black and white photo class tomorrow (really excited! 4 hours of class a day for 4 days a week for the next 5 weeks!).

This is my textbook. I was wondering if anyone had come across it - what do you think?

Thanks!
Sarah

I haven't read that book, but I do have another book co-written by one of those authors (Barbara London). It's a really good book on Photography. If you're interested:

I had to buy the book Uni suggested, and it is the only book I voluntarily kept! If you can find one at a low price, I would suggest it.
