I've just discovered this "book":

http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/txt2tags-lambert-m-surhone/1026253107

It's very expensive ($45) for a meaningless collection of articles retrieved from wikipedia. I don't understand why Barnes and Noble (and others such as Amazon) allow this compagny to sell such things on their store. It's not a good advertisement for their business.

RTFM with three easy payments of 14.99!
