Searches at lulu.com for 'Grant Foster' and 'Analyzing light curves: a practical guide' fail to display the book. A search for his name does display his book on statistics. Perhaps the light curves book is out of print.
Indeed it's absent from lulu.com, and from anywhere else I can see. Lulu.com still lists his statistics book.
Worse, I recall we have CHOICE courses depending on the lightcurve book. Possibly AAVSO (someone with IP skills) could reach out officially to the author & negotiate duplication rights.
Hi David,
You can purchase a copy from www.lulu.com. Just do a search on the title. It costs $39.95. This is not a used copy.
Good luck,
Whit
Hi,
There is also another one:
Brian D. Warner, A Practical Guide to Lightcurve Photometry and Analysis
https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783319327495
regards Bernhard
Light Curves of Variable Stars, A Pictorial Atlas, by Sterken & Jaschek is also another excellent text on this topic.
Ad Astra,
Tim

I purchased this book from Lulu in January this year. I hope I was not the last one..
I've just checked on Amazon's web site. It seems to be available there. See attached screen shot.
When I looked on Amazon a little while ago, it was not available.

Should have read the screen shot more carefully.
Amazon will not ship this item to Australia.

I have a used copy I'll part with - contact me through my profile

Thanks for all the suggestions.
I just got my copy from LULU just in the nic of time.
