From the UK, when I tried that link I get the message "Kindle titles are available for UK customers on Amazon.co.uk." (where the "Buy" button is normally), Only the hardback is (expensively) available.

The problem is that the Authors have historically sold publishers the rights to publish books only in specific parts of the world.
this makes sense when you are talking about printed books, where the publisher needs to have a distribution chain setup in that part of the world to be able to sell the books.
But unfortunately, the e-book version suffers from the same distribution limits, even when they don't really make sense.
