    It’s all there Chalks.

    Wouldnt tecomend it in truth as it’s very very heavy going.in parts.

    As someone with an interest in 'Northern Soul' and who has edited more than my fair share of academic papers and books, I look forward to reading.

    By the way, I do believe another PhD dissertation/thesis is due very soon.

    I wondered the same thing - do you just pledge an amount now and it only gets taken if the target is reached? 

    Seems a long way short with only a couple of days to go

    From the Kickstarter website FAQ:

    Why is funding all-or-nothing?

    All-or-nothing funding means that no one will be charged for a pledge towards a project unless it reaches its funding goal. This way, creators always have the budget they scoped out before moving forward. 

    All-or-nothing funding is a core part of Kickstarter and has a number of advantages: 

    It's less risk for everyone. If a project doesn’t reach its funding goal, creators will not be expected to complete their project without the funds necessary to do so, and backers will not be charged. 

    It motivates. Adding a sense of urgency motivates your community to spread the word and rally behind your project. 

    It works. Of the projects that have reached 60% of their funding goal, 98% were successfully funded. We find that projects either realize and surpass their goal, or they never fully take off.

    Dusty Groove records (US) have economy shipping as an option I think, not expensive at all, but I don't know if they are stocking it, maybe contact them?

    Thanks, I'll check them out. A European source would, of course, be more cost effective.
