It has to do with the ups and downs of the print industry. There were a number of CF books a few years ago and that kind of flooded the market and caused less of any specific book (other than ben's) to be bought. As a print run costs a nice chunk of change, once the current stock was out, a book company would have to rethink it's republishing of a book and if it felt the money wasn't there, it would just drop it. Even though this is not really a CF book, it was linked with all of them and that (at the time) was a mark against it. Maybe if there's enough of a need, it'll be reprinted.
If Eben ownes the copyright (yeh, right) then he has the right to republish as an ebook (chm or lit format for example) or sending it to a print on demand service. If he doesn't, then it's a question of getting a pirated edition and how you feel about that personally. And don't worry about me. I don't track pirates, I track what they are pirating in the print field, mostly comics (2 terabytes so far). >It seems that this book is still in demand. Why is it out of print?
