Hi Jani !
I have the book, and I like it a lot ! Well written and full of information. But I wouldn't order it directly from timber press, at least in Germany it is much cheaper to buy the book at a bookseller as amazon.com or abebooks.com for example.
You can save a lot and I've made only the best experiences with both.
Oh, I just saw you're from Poland - if you don't have amazon there, amazon.de offers this book for 30 Euros, and I guess shipping from germany should be much cheaper than from the states.
http://www.amazon.de/Aroids-Plants-Family-Peter-Boyce/dp/0881924857/sr=8-1/qid64624016/ref=sr_1_1/302-9753545-0300856?ie=UTF8&s=books-intl-de
If you have any specific questions about the book I'll do my best to answer them.....
Best regards,
Michael
