Boyer ensuring he gets money for himself - Aeries - Virginia
Now, don't get me wrong, this book is very well put together and very informative. I learned a lot from the class and can honestly say that I have a much firmer grasp on the world in general from reading this book and taking the class.

However, it really upsets me that Boyer has set up the class to make it mandatory that each student buy a NEW copy of the book each semester. This book costs -90 new, and cannot be resold for much more than a few dollars since it will never be reused.

It bothers me even more because he claims that it's all the evil publishing company's fault that he has to use the access codes that can only come with a new copy of the book, and so on and so on... That's a bunch of crap. Even if he needs to use a third party site for testing, access codes can be supplied independently if he wanted them to be, for a minimal cost by comparison.

Now, I understand he has to update parts of the book due to shifting world events semester to semester, but this could be handled much better. He could write a standard history up to whatever point for each region, and add addendum as necessary and post them on his website that he loves so much.

So while I learned a lot from the class and the book, his selling practices are inexcusable. His fans will try to offer excuses, but it doesn't change the fact that he is draining students of excessive amounts of money each semester that could be avoided.
