Might want to try the publisher too - http://www.grantabooks.com/ - as it's
2004/2005 publication they ought to have it somewhere in electronic format. If
you need a hand with the author, am happy to help as work at Oxford Uni (doing
alt formats).

> Dear all

> Does anyone have any relatively quick, easy and cost effective
> solutions for transcribing material into audio format (ideally) or
> electronic format. I need to get a whole book transcribed for a
> student who is having to do a book review for a compulsory assignment.
> This is not something I have had to do before, and am wondering where
> to start! I am situated in the Birmingham area, so suggestions of any
> useful external services locally would also be helpful.

> Many thanks
