Pearson eTextbook App for iPad

The Pearson eTextbook app is a great companion to Pearson’s eTextbook browser-based book reader. It allows existing subscribers who view their Pearson eTextbook titles on a Mac or PC to additionally access their titles in a bookshelf on the iPad either online or via download. With the eTextbook app, book content is displayed with the highest quality fidelity to the print and online versions of the textbook. The app provides students and instructors with many of the same features available to browser-based eTextbook subscribers. The eTextbook app provides full-text search capabilities, highlights, notes, bookmarks, support for multimedia content, glossaries, multitasking, ability to create study groups and many other exciting features!

Note: Requires iPad iOS5.0 or newer and a valid MyLab & Mastering or Pearson Digital Library username and password. Some titles are not yet currently available.
