Each year I buy a dear friend of mine a book for Christmas, as he does for me.

Usually my purchases come via eBay, but the book I’m after hasn’t been listed on eBay for the last couple of months.

Could any of you chaps recommend any second hand book sellers please?

The book I’m after is called ‘Who’s really watching you’, and is about how meta-data is used to surveil and profile us as individuals.

Amazon have a powerful advanced book search which unfortunately doesn't bring up that title.

Could it be "Who's Watching You?" by John Gibb, in which case there is one on Ebay:

Amazon, obviously?

Helps if you know the authors name or ISBN.

For future reference, World of Books (wob.com) is worth a look. They're not the cheapest, as I think they might be a re-seller for smaller 2nd hand shops, but they've got a load of range and they qualify/price by condition.
