Coming out from Historical Materialism soon. Only $465.92.

I understand that the hard cover edition is meant for libraries and that it 
will likely be available as a paperback from Haymarket eventually but isn't 
there something wrong with the optics on this, as they put it on cable TV news 
shows? 


Ken Hiebert replies:
Louis acknowledges that this is a matter of optics.  He does not suggest that 
it is a matter of substance.  I won't be surprised if libraries and other 
institutions pay the price as I expect that this is irreplaceable scholarship.  
Like others I will wait until it is offered at a lower price.
Knowing John as I do, I will be very surprised if he spends his earnings from 
this on an expensive condo or on a luxury cruise.
