Luckily, you don't have to understand it to be on the wrong side of it.

Not really. I'm not making any ethical or moral judgments about what you ultimately decide to do. You're free to make up your own mind on that. I don't really care. I'm just telling you how the law sees it: if there is no legal (sanctioned) ebook version available, then any copies that are uploaded--and subsequently downloaded--are violating copyright (if the work is not public domain).
To stay in the clear, make your own ebook from your own physical copy and keep it to yourself... or if you don't care about staying in the clear, then go ahead and download a copy. Either way, it doesn't change the fact that no one here is allowed (because of MobileRead rules) to direct you toward an unauthorized copy of this book.
