Thanks Doc. Amazon sells a new reprint, so I should have a copy of it it a day or so; and it's available electronically for free. The miraculous convenience of modern tech!
I too remember the days of libraries: go the library, search the catalogue index, copy stack number, go to stack location .. only to find that the book you want has been borrowed by someone else. So you speak to a librarian who tells you that it isn't due back for another 2 weeks. So you put your name on a waiting list and a librarian calls you on your home telephone when it is returned. All of which seemed reasonably convenient at the time! Hah!
