Figuring out which textbooks are required for class is often an arduous and tedious task, but this is still the best strategy to get your textbooks cheap, b/c if you wait to buy your books until the first day of class the cheapest ones will likely already be sold out and you may have to buy them at the bookstore at bookstore prices.
There are a number of ways to go about finding out what books are required, you can talk to a friend who took the course last semester, or try to see if the bookstore has the information… but the best way still remains, asking the professor. Given this difficult task, I decided to simplify a small part of this process by talking to one of my professors and having him give me his required textbooks for his courses. Here is the list of books that are required for a few of the masters’ in Public Administration courses at Seton Hall University; these are all of the courses taught by Professor Paul Cavanagh this semester.
