Does anyone have a copy of the book by Joshua Shelley called "Wasp on the Moon", published by lulu.com, a vanity publisher?

Because....
....I'm in a Facebook group he's in and he's a right royal pain in the arse. He keeps lecturing me about science and he and one of his sidekicks keep calling me a liar.

Re: Proofreading!
From what I've been able to read on Amazon, his proof for intelligent design is that science is useless cos it can't tell you what time you're going to have lunch at and because bees don't get paid with money, but with honey.
I spent a glorious afternoon reading the bits that Amazon would let me read. If anyone wants to try it be aware that it can have a terrible effect on you. I had to crawl to the bathroom on my hands and knees after reading a legend which said "Photograph showing the colours....." underneath a black and white photo. Seriously, I was howling on the floor, utterly priceless.
It has the same quality as "1066 And All That". There are parts that leave you a helpless, tear-stained wreck, unable to breathe. I want to read more of it, but begrudge the money he would get.
