This book is absolutely packed with info. Extremely valuable reference if you're going into agriculture or engineering that involves siting roads and buildings. I had to get it for a college soils class too, and while it is dry reading, there's really a lot to learn and digest. It's one of the first textbooks I'll be keeping rather than selling back.

"Student Value Pack", which sounds like an alternate version with some kind of study aid, is just a name to mean an unbound version of the book; there is no difference regarding content with original version. It DOES NOT HAVE extra material. But, if you want so same some bucks, you can buy this version and place it in a 1" 3-ring binder, it fits perfectly.
