However, we could not turn a profit if the final cost was significantly lower than that of OCaml for Scientists. Wiley are publishing F# for Scientists and they made it clear from the outset that they are interested in OCaml books. They even proposed that I write a second edition of OCaml for Scientists and publish it through them. -- Dr Jon D Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd. http://www.ffconsultancy.com/products/?e
