I agree that the price is higher than we'd like, but there's nothing we can
do about it, unfortunately. As an academic publisher, pricing always errs
on the higher end barring any special sales, sadly. I too find it odd this
is locked to certain devices, but I can only assume this is a literal color
version of the paperback that it has to do with the lack of page scaling,
i.e., it will only look right on the devices listed as compatible.
Obviously, that's not ideal, as there should be no specific reason why this
wouldn't be optimized for every Kindle-compatible device.
