Hi Guys,
We would love to offer a pdf version of the book, but we have yet to find a secure way to do so
We are VERY, VERY open to ideas about how to provide secure electronic copies of the book! Since the tech bubble burst five or six years ago, computer book sales have dropped about 85% !
That's a really serious problem because it is almost impossible to making a living as a technical book author these days. Kathy and I consider ourselves to be very fortunate to have had the success we've had with our books, and we'd like to keep creating them, but each book requires a huge time investment (maybe 1500 hours on average), and we simply can't afford to make that investment and then give copies away - it is a huge problem for us.
You should know that we always have a
thread open on this problem, and again, we are very interested in hearing your ideas about how to accomplish this task securely!
Thanks,
Bert
