This was published a few days before Christmas and is on stream now. Please
check:

http://www.ashgate.com

for your distributor (Ashgate is a multinational) with a (North) American
distribution office.

The following statement cannot be a committment by me and I ask you NOT to
refer any questions to me:

I have suggested to the publishers Sonic Arts Network, CEC and SEAMUS as
organisations membership of which obtains a discount on the list price
(which I promise I could not influence - i.e. it's high - I tried my best!
get your library to get it!).

There's no harm in stating this soon to the distributor and trying your
luck. I repeat I cannot take queries on this. I have no influence!

Happy New Year!

Simon
