Shopping Information:

On each stocked book page there is a button like this
No Text
If you click on one of these buttons, the corresponding book is added to your "shopping basket". You can add as many books as you like to your basket and the system will keep track. At any stage of the process (including each purchase) you are able to change the quantity of any book, or even delete a previous selection.

When you have finished shopping, you can "check-out" your basket by clicking on the appropriate link on the purchase page. Alternatively, you can always visit the shop (by clicking on the "Shop" button on the left-hand side) where you will see links on the right which allow you to view, change or check-out your basket. The check-out process is simple and secure with step-by-step instructions. All of the credit card information is encrypted to avoid any loss of sensitive information.

The system will maintain your basket regardless of how many purchases you make and how long tt takes you; it will even "remember" your basket if you leave the site and return later. This process does require your browser to have cookies enabled (the usual default) - the site will check this and inform you if this is not the case.

Books in stock are normally delivered within five working days from despatch. Shipping costs are calculated on the number of books in your order and your location; our current costs can be viewed by clicking the link on the top right of this page.
