Thanks for the post Suzy. I have just received my copy of Astronomica and I think the price was well worth it.
A good addition to my bookshelf.

I tried to check on my order in the tracking section, but it tells me they have no record of my order , or I am putting in the wrong information, 
I copied and pasted the info from the email confirming my order so what else can I do 
I have sent them an email with my order number and name to see what is the problem

I ordered my book last friday morning and paid via paypal BUT there was a big problem with PayPal taking the money from my acct and not passing the info onto Booktopia (technical glitch?). I waited for the email confirmation to say the order had gone through but no email. So I called Booktopia and while I was talking to a very helpful customer service lady someone else in the company called on my other phone to explain what had happened. So I paid for the book twice and just waiting for paypal to reimburse the original amount they took from my acct.
I tried to track my order online with the #'s in the email and I couldnt track it either, kept getting a message that the #'s didnt exist.

Looks like I have got my threads mixed up?
But still it comes down to the tracking mechinism of the company I have ordered the book through is not working for me.

Glad your enjoying it Adrian. It's such a fantastic book, especially for the price.
Has anyone else received theirs yet? What do you'll think?
