Couldn’t resist posting a short note that my textbook now has an Amazon page! The cover image hasn’t been added yet, so I may have to take matters into my own hands and put it up myself:

Great!! Will they be changing your name to your full name?
It should be changed on the title of the book, so I suppose it can be changed on Amazon.
Hello,
I have been really looking forward to reading his book.
When will it be published, as it keeps getting put back? I would like to buy before I finish my course in Jena 🙂
The book’s in the printing process now, so there shouldn’t be much more delay. The last I’ve seen, it looks like it will be broadly available in January, which seems about right.
Cool! You must be getting a warm and fuzzy feeling inside. 🙂
There’s a bit of that, and a lot of the terror of what happens when it gets out into the public! 🙂
This is really great news. I enjoyed reading the book and I look forward to having it on my shelf.
Thank you. Its been on my amazon wish list since June. Can’t wait.
