Freedman and Kaufmann "Universe"

Hi all,

Has any kind soul got a copy of "Universe" by Freedman and Kaufmann that I may purchase from them at some economical price? I have just started an Astronomy Diploma at UCLAN and it is one of the set books. At £40 new it is a tad expensive for A Senior Citizen on a fixed income:-(

I am in the UK.

The current edition is #8, but a #7 or #6 would do.

Brian
