i love how when ITT reps are talking up ITT they talk about how all the books are up to date and that every 6 months ITT researches their books and get updated ones. this is a flat out lie. it is now 2010.... many of my CNS course books only cover OS's like windows 98, 2000.... its 2010! are you fuckin kidding me... were learning about operating systems that were released a decade ago? ...

When I took political science and art classes in community college, I was LUCKY if I could find something cheaper than $40. My PoliSci book was $60 used, $120 brand new. I never had the luxury of spending $20 on a book.

Has anyone else noticed that this book is just a custom version of "Sams Teach Yourself Web Authoring with HTML and XHTML in 21 Days"? I find it funny that a place of "higher learning" is using a beginner's book to teach a class.

Worse yet, the C++ book (the Deidl one) is also a beginner's book, as well as the VB book. Of course, since the Deidl book was so bad, my class (C++ ...

Well, I can now say it's about time our money is being put to some decent use. The campus is being remodeled.

Okay so now for my books and equipment rant. What is up with all the custom books?? Especially the Operating Systems book if any of you know about it. Slap two books together, not even recent ones, as one of them was actually an A+ book for when it was hardware and os technologies. The biggest problem with the books is this though...NOBODY READS THEM! I ...

So the Prisoner's dilemma is a fundemental example in economics because it illustrates a concept of game theory. Game theory describes the mathematics of human interaction in a perfectly reasonable world. While humans are not reasonable, understanding game theory provides an understanding of natural processes, human activity on a broad scale, and provides a basis for understanding more complex models of human interaction.

The prisioner's dilema illustrates how the rational choice may not be the ...

lol now come on usually i would agree, but what about the index? or the chapter we were on.

The ant part is right tho.
