His older books have come down in price over the last couple years. I think I paid ~49 bucks apiece for the first three. (Some Amazon deal.)

These books are expensive because their production quality is incredible and Tufte prints them himself to maintain quality standards. If you think the price is too high, then wait 2 or 3 years and you'll probably be able to pick it up for $30.

Oops, I deleted the comment that soldierant responded to. I complained about the $52 price of this book, and then, obviously, had second thoughts about it. :)

Can't believe you have yours already I ordered a few days ago and mine isn't here yet... I've been waiting years for a new Tufte book.

Even better, attend any of Tufte's one-day seminars $360 (students $180) and receive copies of all four books at no extra charge, seems like quite a deal to me.

I pre-ordered from Amazon, and it lists my delivery date as "August 9, 2006 - August 11, 2006". Uh....?
