I doubt it will ever come out. Maybe the can't get enough preorders at the price being asked to justify printing it.

It is quite expensive...but I don't like to preorder as it is annoying when they keep changing the date!

Pre-orders is probably the reason. An expensive book that probably cannot be justified during a worldwide recession, and I guess they're looking for a good proportion of a 1,000+ print run to fulfil. But I note the Amazon page quotes a publication date of 2006, which is quite odd. However, publishers will often quote a future date when the book is in progress - has it been that long in development?

The Book Depository also quotes an end-May date.

According to the Arnoldsche website there's now 10 days before they either finally release the book... or before they noticed that they forgot to bump it forward another couple of months.

Probably the latter.

Patience paid off for me - I've had a pre-order with Amazon for over a year, when they listed it briefly at £43. Arrived this morning.

It's what all glass reference books should aspire to be - short on waffle and obvious decorative filler, heavy on hundreds and hundreds of useful images!
