Even checked my bank account and email receipts in case I bought it when drunk but nothing.
Nice book but....
All members of the A - Team had it sent to them as a gift for services rendered to SA Footy?
I'm expecting/waiting for you clowns to get together a million or two for that!
Doesn't explain a $90 book though.
It's wasted on me, I struggle with the Budget and TV Guide!
In a previous life, teaching at a University, I occasionally had textbooks mailed to me. I figure that publishers scrape the University websites for courses that could use their books. Then they send samples of those books to the course convenors in the hope that they would be adopted as official textbooks, thereby securing the custom of dozens - or sometimes hundreds - of students.
So perhaps the publisher hopes that you will spruik the goodness of this book to the SAfooty population, driving up sales. It's already working as free advertising; I'd never heard of the book until now.
