I did go to Amazon.com and found the book. The cheapest was New $17.39+$3.99 shipping. I was hoping I could find it for you used, because I buy most of my books from them used and have never had a problem, but believe it or not the cheapest used book was $22.95. Sorry Pink did try for you.

Have you tried Alibris.com? You can get new OR used books and very reasonable ... lots of different prices depending on how the seller values their book. I've purchased a number of great books from them -- all used library books and hardbound, many cost me roughly $4-$8.

I like to check with my local public library to see if they have a book first before I spend the money to buy it. I'm fortunate to be able to have cards to check out books from both the county library system and the city library system. You could also request that your local public library purchase a book for their patrons (you...!!!) to use, or they could request it from another library system that does have it. Hope this was helpful. :-)
