Aha! My daughter just gifted me the Kindle edition of Active Defense: China's Military Strategy etc by M Taylor Fravel. It's from Princeton UP, and by golly it opens at the cover! So does the Look Inside sample on the Amazon store page. And whenever I click on Go to > Beginning, the cover pops up.

My Fire tablet is about a month old, so I'm assuming the book is KFX. (Is there a way to check?)

The ebook is $19.25! This is very unsettling to one who grew up with 25-cent Pocket Books. Even the educational imports from Paris with the green covers (Olympia Press, I think they were) went for less than a dollar.
