Hey I'm an editor for Head First, glad you're interested in our books. You can buy direct from O'Reilly and we'll ship to Mexico: <a href="http://search.oreilly.com/?q=head+first" rel="nofollow">http://search.oreilly.com/?q=head+first</a>.<p>Sorry to hear about your laptop. :(

Any large chain bookstore such as Barnes and Noble or Borders will probably have several <i>Head First</i> titles in stock.

If you look at the right places online, you can find such books.

Surely amazon.com ships to Mexico?
