  "Disclosure: All of the links in the following lists are Amazon affiliate links. If you're opposed to me making a few cents off this blog, but you're interested in any of these books, they're easy enough to find by searching Google for the individual titles." The author is honest enough to inform you about it.

  I expect just about anyone linking a list of books on Amazon to be using affiliate links.

  I find Amazon affiliate links (especially text-based links) to be perhaps the least offensive form of advertising revenue on the web.

  You could always try this greasemonkey script which always substitutes your own Amazon affiliate id so you can sponsor yourself. http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/3468 http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/3468

    Which directly breaks the Amazon Associates TOS and would allow Amazon to not pay you and delete your account. https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/agreement https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/agreement "You may not purchase products during sessions initiated through the links on your site for your own use, for resale or commercial use of any kind. This includes orders for customers or on behalf of customers or orders for products to be used by you or your friends, relatives, or associates in any manner.
