As of now, you cannot buy textbooks from Barnes and Noble. However, Amazon does have a wide selection of them.

Neither available in eBook format from Amazon. But you'll be marking up the Java book with notes aplenty!

Would you please elaborate? There are scores if not hundreds of college book list titles all over B&N. |
