For Christmas, I want to get Prof. x a copy of a science book he refers to a lot. The book is in German (actually a translation from Russian), which is x's native language, and
AFAIK it's never been translated into English. I can apparently get it through amazon.de (or its affiliated dealers), which is the German branch of amazon.com; the problem is the website is in German, which I don't read, and has no translation. I tried to order a CD once from there but ran up against a ton of boilerplate and gave up; I checked amazon.com but they don't seem to have it. Can amazon.com help, or should I just ask Mrs. x (also a German-o-phone) to help me navigate?
