Dear All, Thanks for all the help extended by you. I did check Amazon and realized that the price was much more than the publisher's price. So I started hunting for some bookshop/library here in India, which could help me locate the book. Bookfinder.com was an excellant site. Many a times, books that we weed out, may be needed by other Libraries. I was taking just such a chance (one in a million, I know) but, in this way I can communicate with library professionals all over the country!!! Thats something!!!!
