You do not need to buy the physical textbook. The only thing you need to purchase is the Mindtap access code for this book. This access code will give you access to the ebook and online materials. There will be required homework on Mindtap, so you will not be able to pass the class without the Mindtap access.  If you choose to purchase a new/used copy of the textbook, be sure it comes with an unused access code or you will be required to buy an access code anyway.
