The problem is quite a few of those books seem to
be out of print.

Local bookshops here in Sydney don't usually carry any Ada books.
Have to order them in with up to 6 months wait.

The only book in stock is
 Programming In Ada 95 by Barnes   Second edition.

Amazon has quite a few but even some of the ones they have in stock are out
of print with the publishers.

Also looking for books with practical examples
writen if possible for sceince and engineering use
not just as comp sci style text book.

Preferably has embedded and realtime focus
or at least some coverage of them.

Thank you.
