I've never heard of it, let alone read it, but from the two reviews posted on that page it looks pretty interesting.

Of course I don't know what his tastes are, but if someone gave me something like that I'd certainly read it.:sunny:

Here's the book I want:

No way would I pay that much for it, nor allow someone else to pay.

Yeah $60 for a used paperback that's copyright 2000 is way over priced IMHO.

There are 31 used copies of the 1982 paperback edition starting at $0.01 on Amazon.
