Feisty CCRI student newspaper should investigate a $200.00 MEDICAL Terminology workbook

  One issue for a feisty CCRI student newspaper is the exorbitant cost of some textbooks there. The idea is that a community college should be affordable for working class students. A male student in the nursing program showed me his Medical  Terminology  soft cover workbook . He said he paid $200.00 for it! The vocabulary of Medicine based on Latin and Greek roots has been standardized for a more than a century. I could find a similar text in a used book store for $5.00 .
The Rhode Island rip off ?
Book should not cost $200:00 !
