*Kevin,

this is a book I'd love to read and probably relevant to p2p fiction themes
...

could you ask for a review copy in my name, read and review it, then send
the copy over to me?

Subject: Leonardo Reviews: materials Available October 2009
To:

Dear Panel

I hope that change of email for Leonardo reviews has settled and we are back
to normal.
Attached and below  is the list of new materials available.

This month there is a substantial batch of new DVDs and the first offerings
from the fall lists.

As usual please send your requests to Bryony at

ldr at leonardo.info

and we will do our best to dispatch them early next week.

Over the past few months we have lost material in the post it seems so if
there is anything outstanding please do let us know. On past experience
there is not much that we can do to retrieve packages but we can change to
another courier.

One final plea particularly to new panel members: please format your reviews
according to the style sheet so that Dene, who does the work copy editing,
 can focus on other things. If you have problems let Dene know and she will
help.

All god wishes
Michael
