I have just signed a contract with Routledge for them to publish my second book, "A brief prehistory of the theory of the firm". The manuscript is due first thing in December (I have much work to do over the next couple of weeks) and thus with luck the book will appear a few months later.
Keep an eye out and save up so you can be one of the first lucky people to own a copy!

Ahem, didn't quite get around to buying the first one. Are they doing a paperback of this one? :)

AFAIK its only hardback and Kindle. May be paperback after 18 months or so.
