Hot flash! What about releasing the book with the disk?
Hi PE,
I am glad that your video is coming out. But the Book should come befor the video, even if you need to sit on the disk for awhile. Call me an old fashioned old fert. But I believe that the written word contains an intrinsic value that images,still or moving, detract from. Reading requires an effort , and therefor a participation, from the reader that is absecent in movies. If the movie replaces the book, and I mean that in general, not just your movie and your book, it contributes to the continuous dumbing down of society.
Even better release the two in a package that includes Ron living with you for two weeks of one on one in home training!
This is available (now that I have my insurance fixed up and now that I have incorporated), but it is a bit pricey!
Only, you come here!

I know, it was an oblique shameless plug
Y'know, the worst part about this is that I know what I did to deserve this! It all seems to have started when I bought a Mustang!

Always take care of your pet peeve. If you do not then PETA will come after you for neglecting a pet.

Yes Ron,
I will admit that you have a good argument there. But I will say that anyone who depends entirely on the DVD and dose not read the book, would be doing himself a disservice. Personaly, I would rather visualize from a well written book than see "the real thing". But then, I was a poet 30 years befor I picked up a camera.

Bill;
I've thought about this for a day or so since you suggested that the book be released first. I see your reasoning but I would like to bring to your attention the fact that you have seen all parts of my course, and this may be influencing your POV. For those who are wavering about homemade emulsions, perhaps the disk will be valuable to them, as much so as the book.

I agree with Bill - the video is like icing on the cake, with the book being the cake.
I would sell them together as a pair, at least initially, or price them so that it's not that much more to get them both compared to individually. They need to be seen as a set.
I've seen the video (and a version of the book from a couple years ago) and it's good and quite usefull for seeing how thing's are done and how to set stuff up, but without the details and theory in the book, the student may well be able to make an emulsion, but they will not know many of the reasons as to why they are doing certain steps.
Does that mean that Athiril's tasty looking cake comes with the book/DVD?Ok, ok, I give up. They go out together. Thanks for the feedback.
