We recently took over distribution of Henry and Mary's book, and
we've resold UNIX Text Processing (the only one of our books that
we didn't publish ourselves) since it came out.  

UNIX Text Processing is $26.95 plus shipping; Typesetting Tables
is $24.95.  We don't have any control over bookstore distribution
of UNIX Text Processing, but if we have anything to do with it,
Henry and Mary's book will soon be more widely available, in the
better technical bookstores.

To order directly from us, call 1-800-338-NUTS (that's 6887).
