Where to Buy a Book

Strange as it may seem, I have little to do with the selling of the books, so the information here may not be the most useful and accurate, that being said, here's what I do know about buying a book....

Online

Amazon.com generally seems to have the best prices but they don't always pop up with the latest available edition. If you're not sure which is the newest edition, scroll down to where it says "In-Print Editions", then click on "Paperback" or "All Editions". There are many other online places to buy books, of course, and Amazon itself has different online stores for different countries.

In electronic Format

Some, but not necessarily all, of Larry Ullman's books are made available online in electronic formats (HTML pages or downloadable PDFs). One such resource is Peachpit's Safari, which lets you "check out" books online in HTML format. You can buy and download books in PDF format from eBooks.

In bookstores

Most all of my books should also be available in bookstores. Availability and ease of finding the book comes down to how big and well managed the store is (as a person that worked in a bookstore for three years, I'm aware of all the potential pitfalls).
