Is it available in ePub? Or DRM free?

According to Calibre's "Get Books" function, it is DRM free.
EDIT: Looking closer at your (non-U.S.) location and at the Calibre results, they show: - 6 Kindle stores with DRM - 3 Kindle stores without DRM - 3 Kindle stores unknown DRM Last edited by jj2me; 05-09-2012 at 06:37 AM. |

Thanks for your help - though I should have tried before posting. I've downloaded it from Amazon US and am reading it on my Sony. It is indeed DRM clean, and calibre had no problem converting it.

Thanks for posting about this one. I'm sure it will prove to be very useful when improving book making for MR books.
