Member toraRTC Posted January 9, 2013 Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 I've done a significant amount of google-fu and am unable to find this book. They have it at the University of Michigan library, but there is no way for me to check it out. I've been dying to read this, anyone have an knowledge to where I could find it?

Member odioustrident Posted January 9, 2013 Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 Your best bet for these lesser known books, as you probably know, is to hunt down libraries that might have it. The databases for libraries in your area might not come up immediately on a google search. Have you tried searching the databases individually? http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=7641588118&searchurl=sts%3Dt%26tn%3Dshaw%2Bscreen edit: Did you look at this list below? http://www.worldcat.org/title/shaw-screen-a-preliminary-study/oclc/52417325 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member toraRTC Posted January 9, 2013 Author Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 Yeah, unfortunately the only thing in the area according to those links is UofM and they don't let alumni check out books. Bummer! I wish it was $500+ everywhere I can find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member teako170 Posted January 9, 2013 Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 I have many books in duplicate. I know I have at least one copy of this. If I have a second copy, I will let you know. At work right now, so will check this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member masterofoneinchpunch Posted January 9, 2013 Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 I've been looking for this as well so if someone can find it for sale anywhere please post here. The last time I saw it for sale was on ebay a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member TibetanWhiteCrane Posted January 9, 2013 Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 Here's one for 80$ http://www.abbeys.com.au/book/the-shaw-screen-a-preliminary-study.do And here's one that claims to be the english version, though the site is in chinese, so I can't see if it's listed as in stock or any further info than the price 130HK$ which is pretty cheap http://www.hkbookcity.com/showbook2.php?serial_no=89280 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member teako170 Posted January 9, 2013 Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 I have two copies if toraRTC or (anyone in the US) is interested. PM me your price. If you can pick up a copy for HK130, then that's the better way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member ShawAngela Posted November 14, 2013 Member Share Posted November 14, 2013 Hi, Bigrogie, I just asked my contact about this site and the books (there is also another one mentioned as English language one, about Li Han Xiang). Let's see what he says... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
