I brought from FSF somewhere in 2001 when I was in US for a short while. If
you plan to buy it, I suggest you wait since they had made quite a lot of
changes. The proof reading is going on and I expect it to be out (not sure
when). I feel it is worth the wait and it costed me [USD] $60. Oh!, it is 2
volumes and wonderful paper quality too.
