I bought the book from Kinokuniya for $25.75.

Last week when I checked , they are charging $40 for the book (either exchange rate has changed or there is demand for this book due to it being recommended frequently).

You can try buying from amazon.com. Their second hand books cost as low as US$10! (but plus shipping, would be similar to what I paid brand new)

Hi Moderators,
Pls allow me to go off topic a last time inorder for me to clear somethings, thnk.

Firnaldo, I apologise, I was joking rather too much in my last post.
There is no formal club (the A-team that I mentioned) at tampinese. Only afew hardcore astronomers from singastro gethering there to do some sky observations. But they are good and willining to teach.

Sorry for any confusion that I caused.

hmm..would really love to invite u over for a short session, but weather conditions isn't really that good. don't really wan to scare off an aspiring amateur astronomer with bad skies and nothing to see.

What to do... read books or start pasting those glow in the dark stars on your ceiling..

must needs pour into mine eye.
Or i shall with bent and turned,
fall me down, distraught..To die.
