Not to forget retaliation on trade issues by putting a tariff on books.  But
seriously, the Bookroom (what a name) is a bit on the expensive side,
especially for special orders. The record may be a book that sells for 38.00
US when ordered direct from the publisher (Ablex).  The price here, and that
was more than a year ago: 86.00$.

The lesson is clear!
