  3. Congratulations! And I very much like your choice of the messenger machine for this news :) However... there must be a typo - surely you mean "fall 2014"?!?! ;)

    1. I wish .... The publisher and I want to make this a beautiful, physically interesting book—and design, production, and distribution take time. But thanks for your eagerness!

    2. Oh well - at least if everything else fails in the new year there'll be one bright thing on the horizon worth waiting for... ;) I'm all for polishing the layout to perfection though :)

  5. Yesss!!! Congratulations Dr. Polt! I wish your book many successes and I can't wait to purchase a copy. Signed, of course.

    How much of your mock layout is the publisher retaining? Do you think they will re-layout?

    1. I'm sure there will be some changes. They are committed to a visually interesting volume and we'll be collaborating. It should be fun. (For those of you wondering, Ton has seen a draft mockup of the book.)

    1. I am not sure, but I expect you'll be able to pre-order it several months before publication. I will post news on this blog!
