13 Copies of the Wrong Book


An open cardboard box containing books. At least two are An Introduction to Optimisation on Smooth Manifolds by Nicolas Boumal.
As part of writing a book CUP offered myself and my co-author free copies. So today I took receipt of 13 copies of someone else's book. Apparently CUP do not want this back so I'm not sure what to do with them - I suspect the local charity shops will not want.
