>A particularly handy website for finding them is http://isbn.nu
Thanks for adding to the list. Other good bookstore links:
www.addall.com (searches other lists)
www.amazon.com (reviews, ISBN, sometimes even worth buying from)
www.powells.com (it's local, sometimes it's on the shelf)
The faster you want a book, the more expensive it will be. The earlier you
start looking, the cheaper you can find a book in time to start classes.
Perhaps things are different now, but when I was in college, I could
usually find out from an instructor weeks in advance of posted schedules
what the text would be. That meant I could find the cheapest copies
available (I usually had my pick of the used copies) and it also meant
I could skim the book and read a few chapters before class started.
And that meant that I could stay ahead of the curve rather than grimly
race to catch up.
