Nah, just need to have some pointers...
I have had a bit of trouble with them before, but Kobo (Canadian-based) is mostly fine; they have your book – http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/Spirit-Level-Why-More-Equal/book-HxPWfJzd2Uy9E39d716wPg/page1.html – and if you can read ePub with Adobe Digital Editions you can get it from there. For what I can't find there I use WHSmith http://ebooks.whsmith.co.uk/ — although even there a few are only available on selected countries.
I've had similar issues with my Kindle and the Amazon store (as an added bonus I get completely different prices for the same book depending on which address I enter [8$ for a US address, 14$ for Europeans for example]). Just lead me to set up different addresses in my Amazon profile and cheating.
But I am as annoyed by it as you are: I've got money in my hand, I wanna buy your product and you make it hard for me and screw me over. How is that a good business model? P.S.: Oh and I do also love that ebooks are more expensive than having a dead tree delivered to my doorstep. Awesome!
