About Me

Do I wear my heart on my sleeve, or has it gone missing? Am I the intellectual type, or linotype? One thing's for certain, but I forgot what it is...

Unknown Binding?!?

So I had to buy a textbook for one of my classes. I visit Amazon, search for the book, and find it available at $86.17. Reading the fine print, I notice there's another version of the book available for $57.33. It has no picture, and is listed as having "Unknown Binding."

What exactly is "Unknown Binding" ?  I'm about to find out, since I couldn't see wasting the extra $30 if the book turns out to be the same. I just can't shake the impression that I'll get the book and it will be bound in human flesh, or bound with goat intestines or somesuch.

If that's the case, guess I could try to sell it for more on eBay ;)
