Communis can take no position on the appropriateness of the cost, although we would note that it's significantly cheaper than most BSI publications. If cost is an issue, or if it's just for general interest rather than a need to implement it, it will be available through your local library. I note that Bruce Lawson has written up a <a href="http://www.brucelawson.co.uk/index.php/2006/pas-78-guide-to-good-practice-in-commissioning-accessible-websites/" rel="nofollow">good general overview of PAS78</a> over at his personal site.
