Histology: A text and Atlast, is all you need for histo. Actually, with the new teacher, you probably don't even need that. He's apparently MUCH easier than Dr. G

with books... make sure you don't look at the amazon price but right underneath the amazon price there is always "used and new starting at ___". You click on that and then find new books from private merchants that have 95%+ ratings with 1000+ reviews over the past 12 months. Most of these will give great descriptions of their books, i.e. "small corner fold on back cover, no highlighting or markings", "new 6th edition" etc. I ordered most of mine new through these merchants but a couple like the histology text had minor shelf wear and were heavily discounted.

I had looked at those prices but guess I missed out on anything great. Oh well, I don't really want to deal with a person per book anyways. It seems every order I make online ends up with some kind of a problem and I probably wouldn't get the books when I needed them.

Do you mean Histology: A Text and Atlas with Correlated Cell and Molecular Biology or Basic Histology: Text & Atlas? I think it's the first one of the two, just making sure.

What about BRS embryo and BRS cell bio/histo?

I have a friend who works for a company who has a contract with fedex. She is going to try and ship my books to the island directly. Should I just have her send them to the schools address and they'll hold it for me? I'm not on the island yet so I can't set up the mailbox account. Still trying to decide whether to use her fedex services or go via four star.

Yes, go ahead and send things to the AUC. The Note Services will hold onto all packages until you go pick it up. It's very reliable; I sent my textbooks that way too.
