Attached is a flyer that offers a 20% discount for purchases of the new text of which I am senior author. It should be available shortly in the UK, but apparently not till August in Australia and NZ. We have permission to make three chapters available online, but at this point I am still waiting for my co-authors to confirm the choice of three. Summary details are:
