Sounds fairly trivial.  Obviously the WHITE book  8=}   since that
one is not yet taken. or perhaps the B&W  (blue and white).
Anyway another book is most welcome.  It irratates me that publishers
pick titles.  Authors should pick titles.  Where do publishers get
off on the idea that they can call the shots?  I'd be pretty hardnosed
about it if I were writing a book.  I'd design the cover AND the title
and reserve that right in the contract...It's bad enough that editors
screw things up.  Back in Oct of '81 I had an article published in
BYTE magazine.  I got the Galleys back, read through them, and discovered
that some editor had changed the wording of some text.  The result was that
it was totaly wrong.  Only when I threatened to withdraw the article, did
they put it back the way it was supposed to.  I was not about to have such
a thing pulled on me.
