I LOVE AMAZONS COLLEGE BOOK RENTAL FEATURE! This kind of stuff is what makes Amazon amazing. The book got to my house in ONE day! The book was exactly what I needed for my class. Easy to return. No marks in the book, which made it easy to read. The book itself is super informational. Well worth a read if you are interested in health and fitness.
