It is a new book, so my question is, is this title worth 90 bucks? Nope probably not. Maybe 9.99 for an ebook would be reasonable.
To paraphrase: Do you want piracy, because this is how you get piracy...
- mindcrime 3y ago> It is a new book, so my question is, is this title worth 90 bucks? IMO, yes. I'll be ordering a copy. But "different strokes for different folks" and all that.
- epgui 3y agoI'll always support efforts at making education more accessible, but 90$ is pretty cheap for a textbook of this size. And it's a hardcover! And it's available to read for free online, in its entirety, on the author's website. It's hard to beat this proposition.
- WanderPanda 3y agoThe ebook seems free from the first link you mention (https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-45468-4 https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-45468-4)
- UncleOxidant 3y agoI'm seeing a price of $69.99 for the ebook. Maybe you're accessing that site through your University and they have a subscription or something?
