From correspondence with the author of the book: - Hello, ... I was thinking of selling the book in electronic form, but the publisher is against it. They believe this will hurt sales. However, they cannot prevent readers from scanning the book. But personally, I’m not against it, since I generally support the free distribution of any content. And if there are no mistakes in the book, then that’s better. Moreover, sharing with fellow club members is a noble cause. (
