Free U of Chigago Press EPUB - A Planet of Viruses [Science]
May's free ebook from the University of Chigago Press is A Planet of Viruses by Carl Zimmer. These are usually PDFs, but this month's offering is an EPUB.

Quote:
Carl Zimmer wrote these essays for the World of Viruses project as part of a Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) from the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). World of Viruses was created to help people understand more about viruses and virology research through radio documentaries, graphic stories, teacher professional development, mobile phone and iPad applications, and other materials.
Quote:
“In A Planet of Viruses, science writer Carl Zimmer accomplishes in a mere 100 pages what other authors struggle to do in 500: He reshapes our understanding of the hidden realities at the core of everyday existence.… Whether he’s exploring how viruses come to America or picking apart the surprisingly complicated common cold, Zimmer’s train of thought is concise and illuminating.”—Washington Post

Notes: No registration required, only an email address is needed to get the link for the free download. The book is an Adobe protected EPUB that must be opened using Adobe Digital Editions.

Please do not ask people to "send" you books. Full instructions on how to obtain the book are included in the previous post. The fact that the book is available from the publisher free of charge does not make it legal for someone else to redistribute it.

Thank you.

Ah ... hmmm ...

I think you are in line behind the other guy. Too bad I think I deleted his address (yes, he sent that - more than once).

I think he ended up on some torrent/pirate sites, as after a while, his email started sending me various spam/phishing attempts (and he's now on permanent block).
