Q: Hey, I am getting requests for access codes and money on this site, and it looks like I need to buy the book in order to take this course! What happened to this so-called free education you claim you are offering?

A: Our study guides point only to pages that include free resources. You've evidently tried to access a premium portion of the publisher's site. We didn't suggest you go anywhere but to the exact pages cited by our links. Browse offsite resources at your own risk!
