I actually keep it on my writing desk for easy reference, and it's taught me far more than any book on actual writing. I also particularly like that it doesn't deal in absolutes: it's more "consider if you do this too often or not enough, here's an exercise to help you figure it out."

There's an excerpt here to see if its style gels with you.

Echoing everything GMW said!
It is now apparently. At least in Kindle: Amazon US
