Subject: Slack book at Amazon UK

Hi All:
A few weeks ago somebody on this list reported purchasing a copy of
Slack's "Insect Eating Plants..." through Amazon.com in the UK. I went
to Amazon's site and placed my order. Today I received the following
message.

Dear Customer,
Regarding your order for "Insect Eating Plants & How To Grow Them"
(ISBN 1899296107), I wanted to give you an update on the status of
this item.
We have contacted the publisher, and they have informed us that the
publication of this title has been postponed. Unfortunately, they were
unable to confirm a new publication date. Please accept our sincere
apologies for any confusion we may have caused by the information
listed in our catalogue.

Since our list member states that he did in fact buy the book, how is it
that the publication has been postponed? Anyone have any information or
thoughts on this matter?

Thanks,
Bryan
