Cambridge press says available as of around 1 March, so in a couple of months.
Samples are available of page proofs as they will, I gather, appear in the book.
Here's the 3-page table of contents
http://assets.cambridge.org/97805218/60451/toc/9780521860451_toc.pdf

Here's an 11-page exerpt
http://assets.cambridge.org/97805218/60451/excerpt/9780521860451_excerpt.pdf

Here's the 4-page index
http://assets.cambridge.org/97805218/60451/index/9780521860451_index.pdf
So you can see, for example, how much of the book is about category theory, or how many pages are about Chern-Simons theory. Or any other topic. A book's index says a lot about it.

There are some other sample pages...the menu of samples from the book is here:

Oriti's 5-page preface is in the section called "frontmatter" which also has other stuff.

I do not found Mark's Hadley theory.
But Ambjorn is here. That's OK.
