I'll put this out their as I suspect a unpopular opinion. It's be been my unfortunate experience teachers want ridiculously expensive specialty books. The most egregious was some prof for a management class that thought it'd be a good idea to drop 700 dollars on a book. Most of the class except some brown-noser agreed. He did EVENtUALLY relent to do case-studies inlue of the book. IMO I got more out of reading and writing about actually cases of successful and unsuccessful management from real life than a 700 dollar book When people wonder why books get pirated. That's probably why.
