Hi Jurriaan,

I'll get back to you on some other issues raised in your post later,
but a quick note to say that I can make _Towards a New Socialism_
handy to you now by simply clicking on the following:

<http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/~cottrell/socialism_book/>

to see downloading options, or you can simply click on the
following address for the whole book in pdf format:

<http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/~cottrell/socialism_book/new_socialism.pdf>

(NB: before clicking on the above, note that this is a very
big file -- 208 -- pages.)

In solidarity, Jerry

PS:
a) the scope of their book went way beyond Britain;
b) like yourself,  Allin is not in Britain.  Paul would
probably prefer to say that he is in Scotland.
