The article recommends a sales book based on research rather than war stories. It sounds interesting, but isn't available on Kindle. I really thought Amazon would have enough sway to get the Long tail of books onto their format. Does anyone know the major impediments to this? Is it publisher reluctance? Is it merely an issue with priority and effort doing the work to get older items into Kindle format?
The book was published in 1988, with a mass-market paperback in 1995. Heck, the top review is from 1997. This tells me the publisher likely hasn't even thought about that book for 15-20 years.
Additionally, they probably don't have the book in digital format, making conversion extra effort and time. When you have decades and decades of publishing history, how do you pick which books to spend money on digitizing?
I agree; I actually bought this on Audible audiobook to listen to in the car instead of buying a dead-tree version, since I couldn't get a Kindle version.
