I have tried to order this book from down under through book stores.
Could someone PLEASE send me the address of a bookstore/mail order place
that will deal with international orders for this book very quickly. I 
needed this book yesterday 8(
I beleive its very good, based on the extracts I've seen in magazines.

Thanks.
Mike
