Somebody stole volume 1 from our library. The fiche for books in print
says that volume 1 is still available but volume 2 is out of print. I
guess this is just old stock. It costs about UK\pounds 99.

[It's available in the U.S. for about $75 from amazon.com, but volume 2 isn't
available here, either. I can tell you from personal experience that
publishers seem to make their out of print decisions by no criterion that
anyone's been able to explain. -John]
