Hi, this is my first post to this community. *wave* I just wanted to share this rare free non-fiction find. Apparently this is a free e-book for the month of June. It does require Adobe Digital Editions. (For ipad users such as myself, this means downloading the Bluefire reader app & signing up with an adobe ID. For PC users this means downloading some software.)
Update: Eek, apparently some of our community members are experiencing trouble with the PC ADE software (see comments for instructions). (DRM, you cause more trouble than you are worth. :/)
