Hi,
I got a copy of this book through paperbackswap.com
The problem you describe is probably because the title page is in a very
fancified font which
the scanner software took to be a picture and converted to unreadable text.
I'll take the book for validation this evening if it is still there and
hopefully there is enough
copyright information for me to accept it and do the rest of the validation.
