About sample copies...  Teachers, I know that you're used to having the big publishers send sample copies for you to review (as I am.)  Unfortunately, I won't be able to do that.  Because of the low price of the books, my profit margin is way too small...  I'd have to sell a LOT of books to make up for each sample.  Because of their high price, regular textbooks have HUGE profit margins.  Remember that I'm a teacher too...  One time, a new book rep made a slip in my office and told me that the $180 Calculus book (yes, you read that price right) he was trying to sell me for my students only cost them $10 to print.  Ouch!  (Boy, the person who was there training him gave him a REALLY dirty look.)  Publishers just have to sell one book to make up for several samples sent out...  It's the other way around for me.    But, on a positive note...  Keep in mind that most of the lessons are already online on Coolmath, so you can get a great idea of what the books are like there!

Thanks for your continued interest in Coolmath!
