Also: Eight titles from A Book Apar​t, the artisanal computer-book publisher, added May 2014 (plus a ninth, On Web Typography, added in 2015). In all cases for A Book Apart, it took much too much cajoling and TPL stubbornly refuses to just buy everything (and keep buying new releases at six-month intervals).
