The Ed Wynn Memorial Book Source List, 21-08-92
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Intro:

This file lists direct sources of scientific & technical books, from
a Canadian perspective.  Direct means you get it from the source, as
opposed to ordering through a bookstore:  I'd recommend trying your
local bookstore first :-), but if the title you want is even mildly
technical, you may not be able to find it locally, and it is often
faster to go to the source.  Most scientific and technical publishers
_will_ sell to human beings, just because it is so difficult to find
bookstores which can afford to stock their books.  Many of them are
very good at direct selling:  ask about mailing lists in your areas of
interest.  The list is for Canadian bookbuyers:  many publishers
have distributors in Canada, or are here as branch plant subsidiaries,
and the list will give the Canadian source, rather than the home
office.

Ordering:

If you do plan to order direct, call to check cost and stock:  the
prices change all the time, and you'll need to find out what the
shipping and handling charges are.  And if the supplier's out-of-stock,
you'll know that you're in for a delay.  I wouldn't recommend blindly
mailing out cheques based on suspect price information -- this sounds
like asking to have problems with the order.  Specify how you would
like your purchase shipped, and bear in mind that this ain't retail:
they may not offer next-day door-to-door.  But it probably beats
waiting for your WH Smith branch to get it in. And, it probably bears 
repeating, don't send credit card information in electronic mail...

Format:

The file lists mailing address, phone numbers, fax numbers, credit cards
accepted, other publishers or imprints distributed, email address, and
any comments.  Yeah, a more formal structure would've been nice, but
the file's short -- grep it, awk it, format the heck out of it.  If
there's any kind of consensus as to format, I'll try to build it into
future revisions.

Corrections:

Donald E. Knuth will give you $2.00 per new error in _Art of Computer
Programming_.  Short as this file is, I don't think I can match him.
Nevertheless, corrections and additional info are sought:  I'll add
or amend as necessary.  Please mail them to:
