Exam & Review Copies

Examination copies | Desk Copies | Review Copies for the Media

Instructors may request examination copies of books they wish to consider for course adoption. Complimentary copies of up to three paperback books are available for a nonrefundable shipping and handling charge of $5.00 a volume. These books need not be returned, nor will instructors be billed for them.

Hardcover volumes will be sent to instructors on approval for 60 days. A special invoice will accompany each hardcover examination copy sent on approval. If an order for 10 or more copies is placed within that 60-day examination period, the Press will cancel the invoice; otherwise the book may be purchased or returned in salable condition without further obligation. The Press reserves the right to limit availability of exam copies.
