I do not understand the pricing strategy of publishers....

The book is priced at INR 194 for a paperback version.
The ebook is priced at INR 165. If they really wanted to boost sales of ebooks, the price should be much lower than the paperback.

I guess this is one reason why pirated versions are already available here


Hmmm, I paid 299 at WH Smith.
Was worth it though

I guess 29 rs lower is significant enough in their estimation
The author is an ex-banker so hopefully he will have done his home work and won't be circulating untruths and half-truths about btc
Going through the links shared in other thread, it seems like he knows enough about bitcoin to create more ambiguity ,go through some of his Interviews you'll get to know..!

I didn't see anybody share this bit of news on the forum, so I though I'd do it.

By the way, if someone here were to read it, I would appreciate a short review of the book here.
