How much is a first edition book worth?

I just found out one of my books is a first edition and is in mint condition. It’s a newer book, so it won’t be worth that much now, but I’m wondering how much it’ll be worth in a few decades from now.

Answer by goofy77
Depends on the title and author and how popular it is and if its rare in the future. Keep it in mint condition–you never know.

What percentage of “The Obama Diaries” book are attributed to bulk purchases by conservative organizations?

Conservative talk show hosts out out a book every few months and claim immediately that they “top the New York Time best seller list”. However, most of the books are purchased by conservative organizations who then dump or incinerate them I have heard that as much as 80% of the average conservative talk radio books sales are sold this way, but I also heard it is only 60%.

Answer by justagrandma
As long as they list the book under fiction I don’t care, what’s scary is that some of them think its real.

Percentages don’t count, readership does, and I don’t believe people who order those books read them.

What is the best music theory book for preparing for the AP Music Theory Exam?

Unfortunately, my school does not offer AP Music Theory. However, I will be taking the AP Music Theory Exam next year. Instead of being put in an AP class, my guidance counsilor is putting me in an independent study class where I will be studying on my own. I have a basic knowledge of music theory. I have looked for many places for a more advanced theory book and worksheet that I could check my work on. What book do you recommend I use for preparing for this exam?

Answer by Sk¡nny
The Advanced Placement Music Theory (or AP Music Theory) is a course and examination…

Some of the material covered in the course involves advanced sight reading, in-depth terminology, musical phrasing and composition, music history, chord structure and cadences, and other areas of music theory.

The exam itself is divided into two broad sections: Section I, the multiple-choice section, and Section II, the free-response section. In turn, each section is divided into parts.
