I used to see posts about ebooks available via Humble Bundle quite often. But I haven't seen many lately (maybe I'm in the wrong forum or in the wrong threads).
Anyway, Humble Bundle is offering, at the current time, a bundle of nine computer science ebooks, from
Mercury Learning, on a "
pay what you want" basis.
You wanna know what the books are, right? They are:
- Game Development Using Python.
- Excel Functions and Formulas.
- Network Security and Cryptology.
- Excel 2016 Programming by Example.
- Photoshop Elements 2018.
- Access 2016 Programming by Example.
- Python Basics.
- Mathematics for Computer Graphics and Game Programming.
- Computer Analysis and Data Mining.
If you pony up
$1, you can grab an additional 5 titles. If you pony up
$8, you can get 9 additional titles. And if you pay
$15, 12 titles will be unlocked. (A head's up: I noticed that several of the titles in the
$15 or more bundle are in the "pay what you want" group).
I did not look for ratings/reviews of any of the books.
Anyway, please be generous. The money that you pay goes to support
charity. The default charity this month is the
Python Software Foundation, one that I am not familiar with, but probably helps keep the price of Python software down. However, you can choose your own charity from Humble Bundle's "database
of thousands" (my emphasis, G).
The promotion is scheduled to end in about 13 1/2 days from now.
The
linky.
Now I'm going to look into what charities that I might want to support with my donation . . . .
