Textbooks
Our Textbook List is available as a .pdf to download. Please ensure that the edition of the book you are ordering matches the edition on this list before you purchase it. Often less expensive books are an outdated edition.
Textbooks should be ordered from our Amazon bookstore utilizing the links below.
If Amazon does not have your required textbook in stock or if you would rather pick them up from a physical location, you will find all the required textbooks stocked at the University of Victoria bookstore.
At UVic, our textbooks are found under the course name PRIM400.
Alternatively, books may also be ordered from a local bookstore or directly from the publisher.
Remember to always refer to our Textbook List before purchasing books to ensure you have selected the correct title, author and edition.
It is advised that you refrain from enrolling in a course until you have received the required textbook.
Often students like to cut down costs by purchasing used or older editions.
Older editions often work, but you will find yourself using the table of contents more often to find the suggested readings.
Textbooks that are outdated by more than one edition should not be used, and the use of current editions is encouraged.
Once again, please check our Textbook List to see which edition is in use to ensure that you order the correct edition of the textbook. Amazon will list multiple editions under the same book title. If you are unsure if the correct edition is in stock, please contact the seller.
