I'd be happy to take you up on this offer. Unfortunately I only have three remaining spare copies. So, the first three people who can attend Friday's SLUG meeting and are interested in this should email me privately (and CC Oscar) with the title of the book. - If one of the first three people don't show up at SLUG the book will go to the next person on the list. - If we don't get three people who sent email the books will go to people who are there on the night. Anyone interested can also inspect pages 39 to 42 for themselves.
