Definitely. People don't own the book, just as author of a book doesn't own it. After it's been released, it belongs to the public domain, though copying of it is usually legal only for the author, until some time passes - this temporary monopoly is called copyright.
Just clarifying things a bit, as newspeak of copyright owners can really mess with people's heads sometme.
