hmm didn't find any direct links to the book, though it looks interesting. I didn't have time to be thorough though, maybe later today or tomorrow. Is this for a class or something? If so your teacher should be able to provide you with access to a copy, if not point you in the right direction. In the meantime, you should give a look at Information Anxiety by Richard Saul Wurman; absolutely awesome book.

Thanks you very much. You are so nice. However, it seemed hard to find this book. I need to read it for writting my graduation thesis. My teacher didn't have that book. I search in my school library but didn't found it too. I also search in Amazon but all the book is in US now and it takes time to delivery to Japan. I am very grateful if someone can tell me where can I find it in Japan (English version). I really appreciate if you check your school library whether it have that book or not.

Keio University Mita Media Center has the book.
You cannot borrow it, but you can just read it there.

That's the Keio's way after all. (Just a Jodan)

You are so nice, thanks a lot. However, the books are in Japanese. Todai also has this book too (of course in Japanese). I wonder where I can find this book (English version) in Japan. Please help me. thanks a lot.
P/S: This book is related to IT field so I really appreciated if someone major in IT may ever heard about this book. Maybe JAIST has it?

Did you check Amazon policies or an availability listing ? Don't do standard or you'll be waiting 4 mos, but priority or express shipping ?? I wouldn't imagine more than 2 weeks.

If you're not going to learn the local language, consider it about being willing to make personal adjustments and sacrifices for that privilege of living abroad...
