For me this is the kind of book I'll still buy in paper. I have a lot of pbooks of a similar bent (and pricing) and find these are the kind of books I'm always flipping back and forth in and IMO readers just don't quite cut it yet.
That said I don't think the price is wholly unreasonable.

Are there legit e-versions of RIC that you know of? All I've seen are the PDF scans on the darknet.
