Default New IEE publication: "Electrician's Guide to the Building Regulations"

I've just noticed that a page about this forthcoming publication has
appeared on the IEE Web site:
http://www.iee.org/Publish/Books/Wir...?book=WR%20500.

There seems to be no firm publication date, although Amazon.co.uk
recognises the ISBN and is quoting 4-6 weeks delivery.

Although the full title suggests that it's mainly concerned with Part P,
there's an article in the Autumn 2004 edition of 'Wiring Matters' that
refers to "a good understanding of those other requirements of the
Building Regulations that impact upon electrical installations." Parts
E and L are mentioned in the context of cables and thermal insulation:

"Cables may today unavoidably be totally covered in insulation for part
of their length. The new [guide] includes some simple standardised
circuits including for cables totally enclosed in thermal insulation for
part of their length. The design requires the use of the new white
coloured Low Smoke Twin Flat and CPC (6242B, thermosetting 90 deg. C, BS
7211) cables."

"Another feature of the new guide is its particular user friendliness."
(That I'll believe when I see it.)

More user friendly? Does that mean they've made the content menu a bigger
font size this time? LOL
