It's independant, only one store in London, biggest, broadest selection I've ever encountered. Been there over 100 years. Looking for neural net theory implimentations? There's an entire section. Post 18th centuary Islamic art? There's a section. There's a independant cafe with wireless built in and the staff are beyond compare - you come to them and they know what they're talking about. Other bookshops can only aspire to the wonder that is Foyles, judging from my credit card statements I personally finance the entire operation.
