Supplemental CD ROM of Nike source material

During the past couple of years I have acquired a fairly extensive library of pdf documents of several of the references used in the preparation of this work. Many of these references are no longer in print, but are available on the web. I am offering this collection of documents on a CD ROM separate from the published book. The cost will be $10.00, send a check or money order and your mailing address to me at:
