I am the father of a new nursing student at San Francisco State. It was my job to use Amazon to find the required textbooks and pay for them. This “Plans” book is only one of about 8 or 9 required texts. Amazon had most (but not all) of the books on the list. Amazon’s prices were sometimes better than the college bookstore’s prices, but not everlastingly. The huge problem was that the college bookstore only sold all 8 or 9 books in a massive $650 package; Amazon at least allowed us to buy “ala carte.” Every required text on the list was the 2007 edition. Amazon and other sites were still selling the 2006 editions as well. Sometimes the 2006 editions were used and highly discounted; sometimes they were new copies at full price. Fascinatingly, the price jump from new 2006 to new 2007 was everlastingly more than the prevailing rate of inflation in the entire economy. In addition, it’s hard to presume that changes in the nursing business really require annual updates of these textbooks. The scandal of college textbooks is well known to those who must deal with it, but unknown to the broadcast at large. There will never be a congressional investigation of this come forth; it’s not like it’s steroid use in pro baseball or something that directly affects every child in America. Maybe when “Hillary Health” is enacted in 2009 or 2010, one part of holding down the cost of medical care will be to control the cost of medical training, and they can start with the cost of these textbooks.

The entries contained in this text were very simplistic. Most of the interventions should have been common sense.
