Dear R=E9my,

This may not be the answer you're looking for.

Oxford University's library, the Bodleian, offers to scan theses for about =
=A330-=A350 last time I checked. You can contact them here:

oxford.theses-+QQUbbzyif4JrcTbIn6FzVpr/1R2p/[email protected]<mailto:oxford.theses-+QQUbbzyif4JrcTbIn6FzVpr/1R2p/[email protected]>

and the relevant entry is here:

INST/35n82s/alma990151277600107026__;!!IBzWLUs!VWHWfpuQ-kS-7O5iCFdpLAPCg7eW=
WLl1EiNN06KglGJKxVsAGxge-fAHxzzDE4pRAAl0-jqoT4JvZTj3tBLkl6NEzGS-WHd6yg$ =



You can read more about the process here (all the way at the bottom):

If you, or anyone else, is feeling particularly vigorous, you can try getti=
ng in touch with Christopher and ask him to grant the Bodleian the copyrigh=
t to put his thesis on their public repository, ORA, for free. This process=
 amounts to signing a simple form.

All Oxford theses submitted today are required to grant the Bodleian a simi=
lar copyright, so it's only due to historical lack of foresight that the co=
pyright wasn't asked for during submission.

I don't have an electronic way to contact Christopher, maybe others here do=
. His most recent paper puts the affiliation as:

Pagoda, 73 Orchard Way, Wantage, Oxon, OX12 8EB, UK

This address seems to be a residential home. If no one here has electronic =
contact details, it may be worth sending (*gasp*) snail mail, explaining th=
e process and asking whether he would agree for the Bodleian to make his th=
esis available.

Yours,
Ohad.
