Help for a friend please

A friend is hoping to publish a textbook. He's received this from the publisher

.. sales of competing books:

'Are you familiar with similar or competing books that have been published in the last ten years? Please provide a list. Include cost in Australian dollars, and use the CAT website to give some sense of the sales of each of these competing titles'



Competing titles are as follows:



Empowering Global Citizens, A World Course - Fernando Reimers et al.

The Practice of Global Citizenship - Luis Cabrera

Global Citizenship Education: Everyday Transcendence - William Gaudelli

Does anyone know of the CAT website that's referred to?

My googling has just returned lots of Australian cat books!

[David]

Can't he just email the publisher and ask for a link to this CAT website?

[Patti (baconater)]

I've suggested that.

[Rosemary (grooving with the Picts)]

I'd guess it was some sort of comparative analysis thingy?

Thanks!

I've sent him the link.

Update!

He's sent his book proposal off to the publisher.

It's pretty much a tarted up, more generally accessible version of his PHD thesis. I'm very impressed with the touches of humour he's incorporated in the bits I've read.

I'll let you know if the publisher picks it up.
