Books for Accounting & Finance degree

Options
I have been accepted onto a fast track course for accounting and finance which means that I will be studying through the summer. Can anybody recommend any sites which I may have overlooked, or does anybody know of any offers.

The books I need are:
  • A Melvin (2009) Taxation: Finacnical Act 2009, 15th edition, FT Prentice Hall. ISBN 9780273730156
  • Easterby-Smith, M.,Thorpe,R. and Lowe, A. (2008) Management Research, Sage Publications Limited. ISBN 9781847871770
  • Callaghan, G., Fribbance, I. and Higginson, M. (2007). Personal Finance, John Wiley & Sons Ltd. ISBN 9780470028551
I used the mega shopbot last year, can anybody recommend any better options.

Thanks in advance.

    I've just finished a course using Melville 2009. I'm not trying to sell mine here, but I would imagine quite a few people are in the same position as me (well, the 90 students in my year are at least!) so keep an eye out on auction sites.
    I'm not bad at golf, I just get better value for money when I take more shots!
