    Book
In summary, there is a particular Schaum's Outline book by Murray Spiegel that is not as cheap as most other used Schaum's books. It is out of print, which explains its higher price due to supply and demand. However, this reasoning does not apply to other out-of-print Schaum's books, as they are generally priced lower.

That is pretty cheap compared to what they are charging on Amazon for used copies. They are going for at least $60.

Integral: $14 is expensive?
May I ask, where is there a copy for that price? The book is out of print.

It is out of print? That explains why it is so expensive. Supply goes down (well stays the same really) while demand goes up. That means that price goes up. Using my High School Economics- my teacher would be so proud.

Norman: It is out of print? That explains why it is so expensive.
In this particular case it doesn't, since several other Schaum's books by Spiegel are also out-of-print and they are dirt cheap. In fact, most out-of-print Schaum's books are dirt cheap.
