Moffat gravity book

I have recently published a popular science book about gravity, and I
wonder if you could announce it in your gravity newsletter. The book,
Reinventing Gravity, has been published simultaneously in the U.S.
(HarperCollins) and Canada (Thomas Allen Publishers), and is currently
available also in the U.K. at amazon.uk and will soon be available in
bookstores. Although the book is aimed at the intelligent lay person,
there is specialized information for physicists in the notes at the
back.
The Toronto publisher has created an excellent mini website, which
includes a video of me talking about the book, sample chapters to
read, comments from other physicists, and other items.
Here's the site: http://bookstreaminc.com/emailthis/default.aspx?id=330
Reinventing Gravity has been chosen as the main selection for December
by the Scientific American Book-of-the-Month Club.
Best regards,
John (Moffat)
