[Radiance-general] Getting Started

[Germán Molina Larrain]

Speaing about Rendering With Radiance,

How can I get "The Book" from Randolph Fritz? is a matter of sending him an
e-mail? how can I contact him? There is one copy on Amazon, but since it is
a reseller, I can not get it brought to Chile.

I am really interested on it.

THANKS

Germán
