What about "[book you could buy at bookstore at one point, but not any more]"?
- spdustin 10y agoI guess that would depend on if the book is still relevant to and likely to be owned by the person you're pitching. Or, of course, you're making a glib commentary about retail bookstores, in which case, s/bookstore/amazon\.com/g.
- clifanatic 10y ago> s/bookstore/amazon\.com/g Well, anybody can self-publish on Amazon (and I do mean anybody, including the completely illiterate), so I'm not sure that's a very high bar.
- GFischer 10y agoWhile many can, I'm pretty sure not many actually do :) (at least for technical topics). It depends on whether the employer will care to check your book references or not, I guess.
