I've gone to bookstores several times in the last few months, and I never see PDSP displayed in any of them.

These included Borders, Barnes and Noble, and a couple larger independent retailers. Even the four-story Borders in downtown San Francisco didn't seem to carry it, at least not in the self-help section.

Does anyone know why this is? Anyone else have the same experience?

I was hoping to be able to go to the bookstore and buy it as well. I love the book shop because you can sample as much of a book as you like before buying (unlike amazon etc) and apart from the book I intend to buy I also get a couple of other books, most of the time from authors I've never heard of.

I tried a few mainstream book shops but in the end I ordered from amazon.co.uk

Even the amazon reviews have dried up, the book in entering into test period where people will decided if its enduring value or a fad.

Maybe they're all sold out?

One can hope.

Most likely it did sell out. I've only seen one at BAM! and Barnes and Noble. I bought the one at BAM!, so it seems like his book either has a limited distributionn or sold out really fast. He's still in the top 2000 in all books on Amazon.com. It's still a very popular book. I'd like to get exact figures on how many copies he's sold. It's probably in the tens of thousands, or maybe hundreds of thousands. Reading the book, I felt like the average Joe wouldn't find this book easy enough to read. It is mostly for smart people.

Whenever I go to the local Barnes and Noble, I tend to check the Self-Help section to see if I see Steve's book. I used to see it the first few months the book came out, but the last few months I haven't seen it.
