With the sort of research I am in (theoretical physics) I require the latest textbooks and the university library rarely has these. Plus the books are astronomically expensive because they are aimed at a very small customer base. So now I couldn't survive without my ebooks.
Where do you get these free textbooks from? I'm sure that many people would be interested in a legal source for them. Can you post a link, please?
