The cheapest listed on addall.com is $40 -- pretty expensive there too. But if it's for research, you might need to bite the bullet.

Interesting lady, sadly no longer with us... http://www.echonyc.com/~cleo/

btw, I was surprised by the OP's statement; "I havew wornn [sic] myself out looking for this book". A couple of minutes with google will find quite a few sources. Expensive, admittedly. But it's an old book, and probably out of print.

Oh yaah...? Ebay and Amazon dont have the stock but link 'other seller'... None of them will ship it to India... Will you take delivery for me and send it to me?

Hmmm - That's the first mention of your actual requirement. Having a profile location of "All over the place" does not really help us guess this.

The reason Amazon lists 'other sellers' is because the publication is out of print (that's also why it will be expensive). I suggest you either contact one or more of the other sellers - you should be able to get delivery to India... Or wait until your "All over the place" travels take you somewhere they will send to.

I'd check addall.com (or whatever) and start firing emails off to booksellers. I live in Japan and have been able to locate sellers willing to charge my US card and ship the book to me here. However, I think the cheapest ones might not necessarily be so flexible. And of course the postage is a lot. And they might well want you to accept the risks involved with shipping.

Literati, the bookstore in Calangute, had copies last I checked. I got my copy shipped (to Bangalore) from them. The address to write to is books <AT>literati-goa.com
