Re: [OPE] Riccardo's books

If you are all so 'shocked' at publishers prices why not simply publish free
online? You undermine your own position by signing contracts then
complaining about the result.

The Palgrave books concerned are

The Constitution of Capital: Essays on Volume 1 of Capital eds. Bellofiore
and Taylor

The Circulation of Capital: Essays on Volume 2 of Capital eds Arthur and
Reuten

The Culmination of Capital: Essays on Volume 3 of Capital eds Campbell and
Reuten

As people say we authors do not get any say. But it would be good for
Libraries to get this set, for potential readers to put pressure on
publishers to keep them in print and secure a paperback.

I wonder if Haymarket could bring out cheap paperback editions of the
English-language volumes edited by Riccardo Bellofiore, or more
specifically, the collections of essays edited by Chris Arthur and Riccardo
on Capital Vol 1, 2 and 3?

I cannot afford $130 or $170 for these books. The University of Amsterdam
has NO titles edited by Riccardo, nor does the Royal Library. Erasmus
University has only Riccardo's book on Minsky.

Seems like only a secret Marxist elite can read this books ?!
