Of course it depends on the size of the class -- a hundred students would not be able to find copies of this book, for instance. But there are quite a few copies at e.g. alibris.co.uk/… | |

I just wanted to call attention to the fact that all caps on the internet is generally interpreted as shouting, and so inappropriate here. I wouldn't shout at tea, so you probably shouldn't shout here. Looking through the database, there are only ~5 previous examples of sentences in all caps. | |

| Apr 16, 2010 at 3:57 | comment | added | The Mathemagician | I'm sure there are enough copies floating around online to use it for a course,Nate.Probably cheap,too. | |
