I'll stand (or sit) to be corrected on this as I cannot find the source,
but I have a recollection from seeing something quite some time ago that
the book may have never been published.

It is no longer listed on Amazon.com (USA), but here is a listing on UK:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/R-Bioinformatics-Kimberley-Seefeld/dp/059600544X

I located a posting from Kim Seefeld (one of the authors) on a usenet
group from back in 2003. Her e-mail then was listed as:

  kseefeld1 at aol.com

You might want to drop her a line if the e-mail is still valid.

HTH,
