Hi.

I noticed book is already there, but Author names were copy-pasted
from position above. This should be "Andrzej Giniewicz and Katarzyna
Zajączkowska" - not "Thorsten Theobald and Sadik Iliman". Also, in
title instead of "ę" there is "\ce" and instead of "ć" there is "ç".
And - the publication year also was copied from post above I believe,
as we are already on the shelves in 2015 :)

If there are some issues with encoding, this is html-encoded title:

"Zrozumieć matematykę z pakietem Sage"

and names:

"Andrzej Giniewicz and Katarzyna Zajączkowska"

Thanks,
Andrzej.
