  Yes, personnaly when I needed a book or a text, I tried to
  "deal" with the author. But it was always books or texts in
  my research area and I could more or less have direct
  contacts with the author. Anyway, Sébastien if you want to
  ask the author please tell me: if at least two blind TeX
  users write to the author he might feel more concerned.
