I don’t think you can buy the book. It was 20 volumes in 1989, and they’ve been working on an ongoing update since then. There’s no plans to physically print a third edition.
But yeah, it’s a serious scholarly resource, and they do put out free small dictionaries as well.

You are right, it’s wayyy too large to fit in one book, I misspoke when I said book
I had no idea they don’t want to make physical copies anymore, though, part of me is sad about that, although I can certainly appreciate why they’d go in that direction.
You can still buy it in print. It’s $1215. https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-oxford-english-dictionary-9780198611868
Nice.
