March 17 - UVic Bookstore

It's a joyous time in the UVic Bookstore, with pretty good "clearing-out" sales on clothing and apparel and so on, but it's especially important to know that there's 20% off books other than textbooks, and 70% off selected textbooks. Plus their membership card gets you an additional 10% off regular prices, or 5% off sale prices.

I managed to leave behind Baudrillard's Simulacra and Simulations, as well as Geoffrey Scott's compendious Canada's Vegetation: A World Perspective, but only to pick up these ones:

• Theresa Kishkan, Phantom Limb: Essays ($15.95 less 30%, and it looks gorgeous - methinks I'll teach this volume in the fall), and
• Derek Wall, Babylon and Beyond: The Economics of Anti-Capitalist, Anti-Globalist, and Radical Green Movements ($37.25 less 75%, and it looks more readable than its subtitle might suggest...).
