EDIT: (2/6/2016) Apparently I read the shipping terms section of the University's site wrongly; several American correspondents report having paid approximately $5 USD for shipping. Also, my wonderful spouse read this post and noted that I have a birthday coming up. I may end up getting a copy of this book after all! Stay tuned.
If you do get the book, I'd love to read a review.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment! Rest assured that I will do a review if I get my hands on a copy of the book.
