Directions for Purchase
(Please Follow Closely to Avoid Problems)
i) Go to the Payhip page
here.
ii) Scroll to the bottom of the page, click on the green "Buy Now" button.
iii) You will see a small thank you window with a blue "Download" button.
(You will also receive an email with green "Download Now" button which just sends you back to the
thank you window with the blue "Download" button).
iv) Click the Blue Download Button. You only need to do this ONCE!
v) You will receive a small pdf file. Save this File!
vi) The pdf file has a link to your textbook, which is an online "Flipping Book" that cannot be
downloaded, printed, or shared. But you can access it for an
unlimited number of times
over the semester, from any device.
vii) Paste the link into whatever browser, on whatever device, and then bookmark that link.
Now you are all set. Payhip only gives you three tries at a
download, so if you don't save the file and try to access the
book each time through the blue download button, you will be
unsuccessful on the fourth try.
Downloading to a mobile device can also be
problematic. So, it is recommended that you download the pdf file on
your PC, and then copy the link to your browser.
Sharing the link to the etext is a violation of the book's
copyright.
NB.
Because the hard copy and etext are sold through different companies,
you purchase each separately. If you buy the online book and then wish
to buy a hard copy, no discount can be offered.
