Sadly unavailable.  Amazon has this listed, but only through their 
Marketplace (2nd hand).  For some reason, such items are not available to 
non-US customers.

Hoorah!  Still in print!  Amazon lists it and it has some of the most 
glowing reader reviews.  And for only fifteen bucks (US) with Amazon's 
discount.

Amazon listing here:

One of the reader reviews states:
"While this 'method' of explaining calculus has been superseeded by the 
'limit theory' one, it is often more useful for those who are not going to 
major in maths (like engineers)."

...so I suppose that it puts it into our bracket ;-)

Thanks for the recommendations guys.

Cheers
