I am also pleased that Rowman & Littlefield readily agreed, thanks to the good offices of Executive Editor Susan McEachern, to become the book's new publisher, making it available for future generations of readers. For that and the generally positive reception this study has received over the years, I am delighted. Yet, a readership for the book remains in the United States and other countries.
By 2000, it was no longer available except in the Philippines, where New Day Press retains the rights to publish this book.
