Availability in the UK seems limited too. No Kindle edition and the paperback is only from third party sellers from what I can see (which makes me think they're imports).

If you could, that would be terrific. I’d love to have the Kindle edition as well, and I am happy to pay for it.

Damned if I know. I can ask Samanth about it and he can ask his publisher to get things moving.

It looks terrific! I just ordered the paper bag from Amazon. I wanted to get the Kindle version, but curiously it said 
“this version is not available in your country“. Any reason why that would be?

I just realised that this book my old friend Samanth Subramanian was working on came out last year.  Been a long time 
since the last book I heard of on this subject.
