He's locked in his ivory tower, he cannot help it.

He seems unaware that you can give ebooks as gifts, and probably has never read an entire ebook in his life.

But IMO, books have never been a safe gift. It's not enough to know that someone loves to read, and who can presume to know another's preferences in reading? And just because I love a book, it's not likely that other people will have the same response. It's too personal and contingent.

Curiously, on Amazon, one of his books has two listings for the Kindle edition:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F8K4756 <- $54.00

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006LU0HKG <- $11.99
