Limited first run. If there is demand, I can order more. If you cannot add one to the cart, email me to let me know you'd like to be notified when they're back in stock. Click HERE.

Paperback (Available Worldwide)

The paperback edition features traditional perfect binding with a matte cover and will be available in the U.S. for $65 HERE and in the UK for 52£ HERE. (these are my direct links).

You can also find it through a lot of other booksellers online like Amazon (U.S. link), Barnes & Noble (U.S.), Blackwells (UK), Booktopia (AU), and Indigo (CAN).

Or you can request it from your favorite place to buy books, or your library. The Paperback is available worldwide and you can take it someplace to have it spiral bound if you like.

About the international prices: I'm so sorry that I cannot control what others charge for Fitopedia. There are currency conversions, taxes, VAT, and the mark up by the bookseller (from whomever you are purchasing Fitopedia). They are taking what I sell the book and doubling it. They are making a lot more on each book than I am. It's just the nature of the beast. I've looked into stocking and shipping books worldwide, I've looked at other printers- I've looked at as many methods as possible. But none seem to be better. Hopefully the printer adds a facility in the EU some day.

Watch below for a detailed first look at the book!
