I am looking for a listing of the top-selling (volume of sales)
textbooks on Amazon.com and Half.com

Please provide a listing of the textbook's title (and, is possible,
the ISBN code) and the corresponding sales figures.

For Amazon.com, it would be appreciated to also include the book's
Sales Rank.

Thank you!

Althought it wasn't mentioned in the original question description -

Please, if time permits and you're willing, do your best to include
sales figures from BN.com (Barnes and Noble) as well.

An excerpt from the previously cited Google Answer...

"The information about best selling textbooks can be found at:
http://www.amazon.com/textbooks

On the left hand side of the page is a box headed:   "Browse
Textbooks" followed by a clickable list of topic areas:

* Architecture 
* Business & Finance 
* Computer Science & Information Systems 
* Education 
* Engineering 
* Humanities 
* Law 
* Medicine 
* Science & Mathematics 
* Social Sciences 
  
Just click on the topic of interest.  This will take you to a page
that begins to list -- on the right hand side -- the top sellers in
the category.  At the bottom of the list is a link that says "More Top
Sellers" which will take you to an extended list.  The list is
hundreds of books long!"

Again, I'm looking for the books':
- Title
- ISBN Code
- Sales Figures
- Sales Rank (for Amazon.com)

[Basically, the above instructions help with gathering Title / Sales
Rank]
