N.B. We have not been able to contact the author/seller at the last known email address, nor via the telephone number we hold, and we have elsewhere seen that the book may no longer be in stock, the first and only printing probably being sold out. Apart from this information, regrettably we know no more than you.
Accordingly, we have made the book available on site
as a searchable flip-page document from the link below. [Ed: HARC-MCRRS]
