Expensive is a reference to English translations, not German language editions

@guder if that is true about the re print that is good news for people who want the volumes at a normal price.
John Fedorowicz asked me to post that here.

I would prefer the original german language edition(s).
The english translation of the work is often flawed, not worth the sometimes very high prices.

All volumes are available for relatively little money, I wouldn't trust the english translation one meter far from my reading chair...
