Someone had mentioned recently a terrific site to purchase used and

discounted textbooks, especially for tcm books, which are so

expensive! I lost the info. Could you repost it, and any other

Hi All, & Hi Alwin,

 

Sean/Peter, if library budgets are stretched next year, we should

ensure that all book purchaces are made ONLY after checking

prices on WWW. See below:

That is a great site! Amazon.com now has REAL competition on

the WWW!

 

I checked the prices of several books on acupuncture, herbal

medicine, nutrition and conventional veterinary medicine. The price

differences between shops is quite astonishing.

 

For example, the book " Science and Civilisation in China: Volume

6, Biology and Biological Technology, Part 6, Medicine " by Joseph

Needham et al ranged from 57 to 116 $ depending on the shop.

 

Thomson's Special Veterinary Pathology (2000) ranged from 84-

136 $.

 

Practical Dictionary of [1999, by Wiseman et al] ranged from

72 to 151 $.

 

Colleagues, BOOKMARK this site and let me know if you find a better one for

your online book purchaces!

 

 

 

 

Best regards,

Hi Phil,

 

Quite a stroke of luck that I clicked on that URL below. I was looking for the

Art of War and Health book and discovered it locally at Eastwind Books of

Berkeley. I called up Harvey Dong and order it just a minute ago. His son

Kevin Dong was my student in human anatomy and physiology, and he's now an local

optometrist. I'll be stopping by his office for a new pair of glasses.

 

All of this in the few minutes since you posted your missive below. Thanks very

much!
