Put book on lulu.com.

andrejbauer commented 11 years ago

So we definitely want the paperback version as well?

mikeshulman commented 11 years ago

Unless it's a huge amount of extra work, why not?

awodey commented 11 years ago

Is this a new one, or the one that Mike bought? We need to update to get all the new periods!

the hb is only about $30, and the difference in price between pb and hb less than $10. So maybe we should just do the hardcover to keep things simple?

awodey commented 11 years ago

I see now -- this is a new one.

andrejbauer commented 11 years ago

It is new and public. It's the real thing. I am creating paperback now.

andrejbauer commented 11 years ago

Paperback version: http://www.lulu.com/shop/univalent-foundations-project/homotopy-type-theory-paperback/paperback/product-21077021.html

mikeshulman commented 11 years ago

That's interesting -- they claim the paperback version ships in only 3-5 days, versus 6-8 for the hardcover.

awodey commented 11 years ago

maybe you should buy one of those, too, just to be safe … it does have more periods than the one you already bought ( - ;

I was curious whether we could send a version to google books. It seems that we can, they accept PDFs without ISBN, but I am not so sure that we want to anymore.

I am commenting just in case someone feels differently.

awodey commented 11 years ago

I think google books would be good.

I could upload this version: http://hottheory.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/hott-online.pdf

to google here: https://support.google.com/books/partner/answer/98235

I could upload it as author and copyright holder, I believe, using "The Univalent Foundations Program" as display name.

Please let me know if this is what we want, if someone else wants to do it that's OK too.

It's fine by me.

awodey commented 11 years ago

Well, if google thinks Bas is the author, then Bas is the author.
