Although the third edition of this text recently was published, we will continue to use the second edition. Second edition texts are still readily available and are less expensive. The revisions in the newer edition of the text would not substantively add to the course and we have chapter summaries that students have found valuable. When buying a book, be sure to get the second (2nd) edition.
