✦ Synopsis

I ordered this book from BCDBooks3, AKA BCD Books (and who knows what other names they go by? they mail out from 402 Grenoble Drive, Sellersville, PA 18960)) and I received instead "Look at my Striped Shirt" by "The Phat Phree." Instead of a book by an eminent German thinker/philosopher, I get a joke for a book." I am still awaiting a remedy from this company and/or AMAZON.
