Books & Databases

All our books are taken from three major databases. Each database lists titles available from suppliers in that country (Australia, the US & the United Kingdom). You can tell which database a title came from by the flag to the left of the title. The search facility automatically looks in the Australian database, you may select one of the others from the menu at the bottom of the search screen.

These books are not all carried in stock & many have to be ordered in.

Delivery Times

Expected delivery times are displayed when a title is selected. Generally, titles in stock in Australia are shipped within 3 – 7 days of order (depending on stock availability). A further 20 days should be added for US and UK titles.

Pricing

Imported books are priced depending on the current exchange rate from the country of origin and include the cost of importation. Please note that the price of imported books bought in-store may vary slightly from the internet price due to currency variations between times of purchase. All prices are listed in Australian dollars.
All orders are subject to price and availability confirmation. If prices change, we will contact you prior to finalization of your order. Your credit card will not be charged until your order is shipped.

Help with Real Audio/Video

To play RealAudio sound files from author interviews and readings, a RealAudio player must be installed on your computer. You can download the basic version of the player free of charge from RealNetwork's web site at http://www.real.com or pay more to download the version with the newest RealAudio features. After you download the RealPlayer, you must install it on your computer. You can also download a RealAudio player by going to the bottom of our home page and clicking on the RealPlayer logo.

Technical Requirements of RealAudio

To play RealAudio samples, you need a modem connection of at least 14.4 bps, but a 28.8 bps modem or faster is recommended for the best possible sound quality. It is suggested that you use either the Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer browser when you play RealAudio samples. Your computer will also need to be equipped to play sound.

If you have trouble installing the RealAudio player or playing RealAudio sound samples, please refer to RealAudio's Technical Support FAQ page at http://service.real.com/help/faq/rjbfaq.html or RealAudio's email technical support at http://customerrelations.real.com/scripts/rnforms/contact_tech_sevice.asp. for assistance.
