It is evening, not morning, but the book should be on the checkout list now. I hope this book is easier to find than the other book you tried to get. At least I am sure this one is not marked as adult content.

These are books that are described by the series editor and in the foreword by Isaac Asimov as overlooked and out of print at the time of the publication of this series.
