Dear colleagues,
Dr. Gesa Hartmann-Schroeder just informed me that the publisher of her
latest book, Annelida, Borstenwuermer, Polychaeta (second revised
edition) is about to go belly-up and is fusing with another publisher. As
usual, such a fusion goes along with a loss of quality and conscience, and
the new publisher apparently does not feel as much of an obligation
towards scientific books for a somewhat specialized clientele and thus is
trying to get rid of a number of such books. They sent about 40 of her
books to Dr. Hartmann-Schroeder, who is now selling them from her house
(she retired from the Zoological museum Hamburg a few years ago) for 28
US Dollars or 50 Marks a piece.
Personally, I think it is a shame to have to sell a book like that practically in
a yard sale, but of course this is a nice opportunity for people with little
money to get a standard work on polychaetes of the North Sea.
If you would like to get a book, please write to Dr.
Hartmann-Schroeder and add a check for the amount mentioned above
Her address is:
Dr. Gesa Hartmann-Schroeder
Werenbergstrasse 26
D-38640 Goslar
Germany
Unfortunately, the Hartmann's don't have email. If you have some
questions, you can write to me as well.
With polychaetous regards,
Brigitte Hilbig
