al-Daylami's Atf al-alif in Arabic

[Joseph N. Bell]

Last year the translation of al-Daylami's Treatise on Love (Kitab 
'atf al-alif) that I did together with Prof. Hasan 'Abd al-Latif 
al-Shafi'i appeared from Edinburgh University Press. The Arabic 
edition from which it was made was delayed and has only recently come 
out, and I myself have not seen it. However I have been informed that 
it is out, and I have found it on the website of Dar al-Kitab 
al-Masri/Dar al-Kitab al-Lubnani 
(http://www.daralkitabalmasri.com/services.php). Click on the 
alphabetical list and then on 'ayn, and a list containing a link to 
it will appear. According to the information there, they may not have 
gotten all my name on the cover page, and the publication date seems 
to be given as 2007, but it is now out (ISBN: 977-238-754-9).

I send this merely for the sake of information, since the English has 
been out for so long now.
