I was checking out the kindle version preview on amazon. You know, when you click "Read Sample". The mathematical formulas seem to be badly formatted and hard to read. I reckon this is just a problem with the html conversion for the preview. Can somebody confirm that it looks fine on the kindle?

Please do not buy the Kindle version form amazon; it's not mine ... someone pirated it! I'm reporting it now, but it keeps on happening. I would recommend you get a print copy since it's much better for learning, but if you prefer digital-only copy you can get it through gumraod: https://gum.co/noBSLA https://gum.co/noBSLA It comes in PDF, ePub, and mobi formats. Here is an ePub preview (of another book) so you can see the math rendering: https://minireference.com/static/excerpts/noBSmath_v5_preview.epub https://minireference.com/static/excerpts/noBSmath_v5_previe... I worked for 2+ years to get this to look decent, see https://minireference.com/blog/generating-epub-from-latex/ https://minireference.com/blog/generating-epub-from-latex/

    I managed to get on a report page via the KDP portal. Very weird, since it's the same URL, but the form showed up because I was coming from a different referred. Oh well, reported successuflly now (I think). Thx for confirming it wasn't just me. I was starting to doubt so I edited my comment. update: I figured out what is going on... It's the classic curse of the extra slash! - BROKEN = https://www.amazon.com/report/infringement/ https://www.amazon.com/report/infringement/ - WORKS = https://www.amazon.com/report/infringement https://www.amazon.com/report/infringement

  I had no idea that can be possible! For the record, it was on amazon UK. I will definitely follow your advice and get the paper version.

    > I will get the paper version. Nice! I have a free-eBook-when-you-buy-a-print-copy policy. Please send me a picture of the book when you receive it or some other proof-of-purchase, and I'll hook you up with a PDF with matching page numbers. This way you'll be able to easily switch between print copy and digital as you need.
