Dear mr. Martin Harper and mr. Rob Lanphier,

A mutual contact Craig Carey informed me about a voting page at an
institution wikipedia. It appears that you have an interest
in voting systems. Perhaps I may draw your attention to:

Unfortunately, the Printing on Demand publisher 
www.gopher.nl is likely going bankrupt, so the book
cannot be bought there anymore. But if you have
Mathematica or the free MathReader, you can download the 
Economics Pack, and read the book in the Help function.

My best regards,

(The official Dutch name is Cool, but since the English
world gives this all kinds of overtones, perhaps a Latin label
is better.)
