As they put it in the foreword: 8.5 lbs if printed and over $200. Yours on the Kindle for $40. I travel a bit and half the cities are places I get to with the other half being places I plan on getting to.
Part of the bloat on my Kindle 2 is buying big tomes like this. I also use my Kindle as a work tool as I find the clipping/annotation tools very useful. So I buy many technical books out of Amazon's extensive technical collection.
Incidentally, they have 10 times as many hard science books as they do science fiction books.
