The eBook for this course is 4th Edition, but that can't be found anywhere other than StraighterLine. If you want to rent the 5th edition of this eBook for a month, it's $50.75 from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Human-Communicati...B00DC5UX8O.

Thanks, but it looks like that's just the paperback. I think I'm just gonna suck it up and purchase the eBook from SL because I can't seem to find the 4th edition anywhere else. Thanks for the help!

I ended up doing that quite a bit too. It was frustrating paying so much for books (for me with buying several it ended up being several hundred dollars), but I kept in mind that it was still cheaper than taking a traditional class and paying for a textbook that way.

or you can call them and change your option to buy a bundled course with ebook included for $10 additional fee. That is what I did when I bought my SL Intro to communication class. A total of $69 for the class and ebook minus $20 off coupon. Grand total of $49. Call or chat with them and make change to current purchase then spending $68.
