They soared passed 40,000 last night. If the book makes it into the top 10,000 (or even the top 500 for its categories) then there is a chance for it to take off virally.

Do you possess a tablet or mobile device capable of reading PDFs (such as an ipad, iphone, android tablet, laptop, pc, or even a newer generation kindle)? Then you should try the Special Edition eBook version available here. A few extras have been added to this edition. There’s an extra essay and a small collection of color photos. You even save $2 off the price of the print edition. Just think of it as a reward for buying direct.
