Who cares if it's the best textbook according to Amazon.com? It's THE textbook used in the course your son will attend if he makes it this far. I can't make a more emphatic recommendation than that.
I also respectfully disagree with Books regarding the value of the Essentials text (as against the Fundamentals text). I preread that and it more than prepared me for the material in the course. I can't think of any personal examples where I needed information for the course that wasn't available in the Essentials book. I'm sure the Fundamentals book used by the cadre is probably more thorough, but it's my opinion that for the average student A&P is difficult enough in the beginning without the extra stuff. I'm at the tail end of the course and my Essentials book is still an adequate reference for my purposes.
FWIW.
