Julian,

everything was going well until reading 2 or more books to come.

what people don't want to do is to splash cash and be disappointed. please outline more about book 2 & 3 to help judge what is not in book 1.

ps love the videos and your way.

in reply to your comments Phil.

The e book and associated videos have a registered copyright and ISBN number so any illegal copying uploading to websites in part or whole will be deemed an infringement of copyright and will be dealt with in the appropriate manner. While I appreciate your comments and am fully aware of how things work I trust the company I am using to protect my intellectual property and they have an excellent track record in prosecuting copyright thieves. While I am realistic in being aware that this can and may occur I will be hallmarking each copy sold which will enable me and the people protecting the IP to trace back any and every copy. Pricing, again I have sought professional advice on this however as explained I am for a limited time keeping the price low, thankfully we have received a large number of feedback to the pricing from our many subscribers and I am glad to say it's all been extremely positive.

Thanks for the concern

Hi yes,

Will try and answer your query.

What I have aimed to do is cover subjects (like Gravies for eg) in depth rather than skim over the surface- this has been borne out of 100's of emails I have received about Base Gravies, stock etc.. I wanted to do more than an overview of BIR cuisine but give people the benefit of own experience on this subject. Also while I have included in this first book most of the popular requests for curries it would be impossible to cover every BIR curry on a standard Indian menu and give them justice! I have included technique as well as ingredients (hence the new videos) add to that over 25 'Top Tips' - these are boxes that give that bit of extra information. I can honestly say, that I have not deliberately left out anything with the intention of making a few quid on a second book, infact when I began writing this book some months ago I honestly had no intention of writing any other books, but by the time you have wrote 120 pages you realise that unless you want something resembling an encyclopedia I better think about a second book.

Just to give you an idea what I am planning;  the second book will cover more curries(lesser known) also more starters and side orders, I have covered a few in this book but most attention has been given to 'Key' Ingredients, Curries and Base Gravies. The 3rd book (and this will really depend on the success of the first 2 will be about Vegetarian Indian Cuisine (this got me into Indian  cooking 20 yrs ago and is a subject close to my heart) I am leaving this to last because most of the interest in what I am doing is in BIR.

I can honestly say; this is NOT all about money to me.  I would not want anyone to buy this book who felt that way. (hope I don't sound too melodramatic??)

Before the book is released I will issue another 'ebook News' with more info.

Good luck with the books Julian. I'm sure I'll be buying a copy to add to my cooking library.

You are welcome, Julian.  I hope that your expectations are borne out, but given that not even multi-billion pound film studios are able to prevent their copyright material from appearing in torrent format within 24 hours of the DVDs (with full copy protection) being released, I would not place excessive reliance on the ability of your e-publisher to be able to effectively safeguard your intellectual property rights.  Printed books might seem old hat, but they are still /slightly/ more difficult to pirate than PDFs.

Once one unscrupulous customer has bought the PDF for GBP 7-99, he (or she) will upload it to a BitTorrent site such as "The Pirate Bay", at which point its real value will drop to a few pence.

By coincidence, it was announced yesterday that UK access to The Pirate Bay will probably be cut soon, after a significant court decision. About time too, really, to be fair on authors like Julian. Good luck to him.

The Pirate Bay is just one of hundreds, You cant stop every one of them, especially in China, Where there is no copyright, And Hallmarks/Watermarks are easily removed from a PDF file anyway, But the best of luck to Julian.

No copyright exits as such in most of Asia ( it does but no one gives a hoot ) and all the sites are fairly accessible for downloaded material

best, Rich

A great shame, IMHO.  I use the Pirate Bay to distribute 100%-legal open-source software in torrent format; it would be a great shame if those who abuse P2P lead to this and similar sites being blocked.
