Scala Puzzlers: pricing?

[Campbell Ritchie]

Good to see you here

Why is this edition of your book so much more expensive than this edition?

Hi Campbell

> Why is this edition of your book so much more expensive than this edition?

I have no idea - wonder where the expensive one came from? Of course, I'm proud of the book, but I hadn't realized it had made "rare collector status" already ;-)

Seriously, though: this listing is the "right" one.

Thanks for pointing that out!

I have seen that sort of thing before, where you see ridiculous prices on books websites. The second is obviously a first edition printed by Caxton and Gutenberg themselves with solid leather covers and hand‑sewn pages. Or written by mediaeval monks by hand, taking six months to write each copy.

...which just goes to show that Scala is actually quite a bit older than most people tend to think ;-))
