fyi, here is a link to the 1st post of the august thread from kent:

the sale price was excellent back then (45%) but now gone since the
school year's started. :-) at least you can get a 12% discount from
bookpool (but they're [understandably] OoS at the moment). anyhow, i
look fwd to learning something from michael's and david's book.

additionally, here is a short article on pricing in the book industry
that may some more light:
