Re: New book on fuzzy expert systems

Springer seems to be really bad at making its books available. I wrote
part of a book that appeared early this year, several months late, but
it is not being promoted at all. I went to a large meeting (over 2000)
dealing with the book topic and although Springer had a display stand,
the book wasn't there. The rep didn't even know about it - when I
showed her the book info she was appalled and very apologetic, but
apologies don't sell books.
