The 1969 Signet translation (by late NYU professor Mendor Brunetti) has been
publicly available since that year--both in numerous paperback printings by
Signet and in 2 hardbound reprints from Franklin Library. The 2001 version
is freshly set and adds a new Afterword by a colleague of Brunetti's,
longstanding Vernian Walter James Miller.

All the best,
