I’ve been waiting for over a year for the paperback version of this book! I can’t wait to dig in.

Book cover of “The Goods of Design. Professional ethics for designers”.

Wanted to read this but it’s ridiculously expensive over here

I just checked Amazon and the paperback price is the same as the original hardcover price when it released 🙉

🤨 oof! Here there’s almost a 100€ difference between the two.

Yes. The hardcover price has skyrocketed here. It’s like 120€ on Amazon vs 45€ for the paperback. Generally fiction books are really cheap in India and some publishers like O’reilly have Indian editions that make books affordable. But imports are always expensive.

Yeah… also this is the first edition, I guess they’re testing the demand.
