Fair use is part of the law. The law describe when, what, in which conditions, and how much of a book (in this case) is legal to copy. And even under fair use it is necessary to cite the author.
Even with PD works, the academic precepts require the citation of the source, this time to elegantly avoid the plagiarism, which is a sort of post-mortem copyright
