I paid $190 for absolute BS -- "Societal Factors in Health Promotion". The prof changed the book the next semester, so no buy back. I do admit that the cash I dropped on my "Molecular Biology of the Cell" book was worth it.

I had a similar situation. School brought in a prof. from another univ to fill a spot. I got that class, had to have a "special" philosophy book that they for sure didn't want back the next semester because that guy wouldn't be back. They didn't even offer me 50 cents for it. I used it to start a fire. Thats about all it was good for.

And when he changed the book for his course the book store had to absorb the loss of the stock they had that became worthless, and so did the the publisher.

"Molecular Biology of the Cell"

Published by Garland/Taylor & Francis, perhaps?
