They had a "manuscript" version of it in the Addison-Wesley booth at
SIGGRAPH.  The word then was that it would be out in March '90.

Foley, Van Dam, (and Feiner and Hughes, too) 2nd Ed.
is due from Addison Wesley in March.

You know what publishing can be like. March isn't guaranteed, but looks
very likely (the book is in final proof stage right now)

Addison-Wesley in the UK have just released it and are sending examination
copies to any academic who wants one.  I have sent off my request form, but
the book has not yet arrived.  I await it eagerly - the contents list is
impressive.

I spoke to Steven Feiner today. The book should be out in April
if everybody who promised pictures, etc. comes through.
