Amazon (UK) has a number of copies, shipping from either the UK or US.
What's surprising is to see the price they are selling for, compared
with the price I paid for mine (2nd edition) some years ago (from £32 to
£93 -- I paid £25 for my copy). On its way to becoming a 'collectible'?
Excellent book.
One or two of DR's comments (in the book), though, may not go down too
well with this group ;-)
