I thought most people owned the 142 page photo copy edition and only libraries owned a real one. I started looking in 1982 for that book and long since gave up. I resigned to spending just under $15.00 and the good part of an hour with a Xerox machine making my own as apparently several other folks have done.
Oxford Univ. Press really blew it when they discontinued its publication. They could have made thousands of dollars profit over the last two decades on this the premier source/reference book for Horn research. I wonder why they never considered re-publishing it. I wonder why IHS hasn't tried to obtain the rights to publish it. I personally refer to it at least twice a semester and imagine other folks use it almost as much. What about this book makes it so un appealing for republication? Karl Kemm Del Mar College "David B.
