Actually, the best place I have ever found for technical books is:
Books Scientific
18 E. 16th Street, 2nd Floor
New York, NY 10003
(phone) 800-621-1220
They pretty much carry everything (especially Prentice Hall stuff) and
if they don't carry it, they *WILL* get it for you within two weeks.
They are absolutely fantastic! They also give you a 10% discount off
the list price and they charge $1.00 per book for shipping. So, any
book that is more than $10.00, you are going to save money on.
I don't have any connections with Books Scientific (except as a very
happy customer, of course).
