Go to www.mkp.com and use offer code 85068 to get 20% off and free
shipping. Note: this only works in the U.S. for pre-orders. Outside
U.S. you must wait for the book to officially publish before the book
is available for ordering (something about our company not being
allowed to hold credit cards without an actual product changing hands).
