Greed of Medical Publishers and / Authors

Some time back I blogged about the  greed of  Pharmaceutical companies and the high price of  some medications.

I am a strong  supporter of Open access journals. I do not think there is any reason  for  scientific researchers to publish in  High priced  journals in this age of  cheap almost free  electronic  publishing facility

Today I came across  a book costing $ 1399.00 in hard cover and  S 1109.00 as an e book
 and this is supposed to be  a "hand book"

No wonder  people  are resorting to  Pirating
