I got my copy of Codebreakers via Leo Lowenthal (201) 328-7196 (if he hasn't retired) for quite a reasonable price. albinali@news.cs.columbia.edu says: Anyone who wants to order "Codebreakers" should contact the publisher (Macmillan Publishing Co.) and just order it from them. Their phone number in the USA is 800-257-5755. I got it in under a week. It cost me US$60.
