Good Quality Book
Purchased this book in used but good condition. I was in exactly that condition when it arrived. Actually I would call it very good but used, I am very pleased with the quality of the book and the accuracy of the description from the seller. And I ordered fast shipping and I had it in 3 days. I'm very pleased with that too. Thank you

Excellent Reference
Mr. Coffey and Dr. LaPlante work at Hudson Valley Community College where I go for civil engineering. The book starts off dealing with aggregates and has so far been very helpful.

Just another book
Hey, it's required for school, good for what it is I guess. Some subjects aren't very detailed. The book is still in good shape and I bought it used for a killer price!
