I have been trying to get hold of this book for my dad but both Waterstones and Amazon tell me it is out of print and unavailable. Any ideas where I can get a copy?

I bought the Field Guide to Edible Mushrooms of britain and europe back at the end of august and took it with me whilst on mushroom hunts..
But I got a new book for my christmas which is The Encyclopedia of Fungi of Britain and Europe by Micheal Jordan.. and I have to admit I found it to be a really good reference book, detailed pictures including side views, what the underneaths look like and every description under the sun, including what they smell like etc..
So I shall see how I get on with this book in the coming year
