Hello Jasen - 

>>>> How useful is that to the reader if even _you_ can't buy
>>>> the book? 

BB>>> But you can buy the book, Charles. You just cannot buy it
BB>>> new. It's probably out of print. 

BB>>> It's œ5.00 here as a used book. 

CA>> Would you want a three page pamphlet that says "buy this
CA>> book" as documentation for source code at your workplace?
CA>> I don't want it and I doubt anyone would want it. 

JB> i didn't get the impression that bill was suggesting
JB> that... He would give them a copy of the book to go with
JB> the pamphlet. 

No he would sell them book(s). One book at (for instance) General
Motors and everyone has to wait in line to get it so they can
decrypt a three page internal document? Ludicrous. 

BB>>> Does Prentice-Hall have a web site? They could confirm
BB>>> whether it's in print or not. 

CA>> I believe it's been confirmed several times that the book
CA>> is not available here in the USA. 

JB> yes, but that's not what bill asked. 

No, it was what I suggested. To find a book that IS in print
and available in the same country that feeds him and give up
chasing a non-existent book that is not available.
