I got it at a Barnes & Noble in suburban Seattle last night - $14.95. It
is great!

They had it as a sale book, put out for clearance in a special sales
aisle filled with many other clearance coffee table books!   If I had
gone to the dino or science book section I would NOT have found it.    I
happened to be walking through the store when I glanced at it. B&N seems
to have bought it as a remaindered item.  

The amazon.com book database does not have it.  They have a german
edition for over $100, and 6 week delivery.
