This textbook is, well, a textbook. It's dull, dry and challenging to absorb many of the lessons. I find most of the examples confusing and unclear, so I just do a Google search for the principle being taught, then go back to WileyPlus to do a review, work practice problems and do my homework. I was struggling in class at first, but now that I've adopted this method I'm doing much better! Next semester, I will be using the same book for Accounting Principles II, but I will not extend the rental.
