No problem. I have yet to get my hands on a copy, myself.

I just saw that you are writing from a German address, and I assume that
you are studying in Germany.
Which means, that, basically, anything with an ISBN is fair game, as
long as it provides an "Impressum", too (which should contain author,
title, subtitle if applicable, edition, publisher, year published. If
the book is cataloged in the Deutsche National Bibliothek, there's a
good change that you can use that book).
At least at my old university, online sources were out for the count
(the web is malleable, after all).
| [1] Don't get me wrong, I love wikipedia, but you know the problems...
I trust Wikipedia about as far as I can throw its servers..
(They do provide good references, though, which often are worth a look.)
