So a question for those of you who have experience in publishing: is there any way that a book that amazon says was published on September 13, 2005 could possibly contain text related to hurricane Katrina (well, aside from amazon being wrong...)?


Separately, since a third person has now asked, in March I ran 117.3 miles. And saw the world's most uninspired Hare Krishnas while doing so...

ETA:
The author says that he wrote that text in the late 90s.

Hmm, on the bottom of that page there is
"6 8 9 7"

Is there some reason that they'd be out of order (and not include 1-5)?

So it sounds like it could contain some text regarding Katrina.

Just by looking at it, I'd guess that this copy of the book is at least a year old, so it's also barely possible, that he heard about the first bunch of US attorneys leaving, figured out what was going on, and added text about that...

But honestly, I'd be surprised if he would, even if he could. Any political statements would seem to me to diminish the academic standing of the book.

Well, I've just sent him email asking. We'll see what I get back.
