His first full-length book was a critical flop. Perhaps I should write a flop before I try my hand at something fusion-related. 😉

I’m afraid I don’t know much about publishing, less about marketing, but isn’t a 20% click through rate highly optimistic?

Sorry for drawing things a bit off-topic, but while I’m talking about books, has anyone else heard of The Green Flame? It looks like it could be fascinating and useful, if a bit pessimistic regarding the handling of boranes. Unfortunately, it’s out of print, and it currently goes for $145 used on Amazon.

I wonder whether the author of that book and site might be interested in contributing or consulting on the decaborane issue. Sounds like a ‘spert!
