Having "escaped" from Sydney 12 years ago to the Queensland Gold Coast,
I'm not too up to date, but only the larger book store chains can viably
stock newer editions of the sort you want.

As for the second-hand stores, the subject category is narrow, so you
will probably have to just slog through the Yellow Pages and phone
around. Sorry I can't be of more help.
