No no no.  Free market system alert.  I'll buy the book just to:
    1) encourage the author to write more Squeak books
    2) encourage the publisher to publish more Squeak books
    3) to show people that there really are all kinds of Squeak books
available when they see my technical reference shelf.  Squeak books are top
shelf right next to Smalltalk-80.

You know where my Java books are, right?

That's a little bit on the silly side.  But I tend to encourage anything
that promotes Squeak.
