Hacker News Reader

I know, after reading the first 20 pages I decided I wanted to buy a real copy for my father as a Christmas gift.

I'd like to buy a copy because so many pages are missing in this PDF

I thought this too at first, but it turned out to be just a problem with my browser's rendering (Opera). Saving it to disk and viewing with Preview on Mac produced the missing pages.

If that doesn't work, there's a different PDF available here that might produce better results (facing pages rather than single): http://web.mit.edu/zoz/Public/ebook_Ignition_An_informal_his...

I managed to find a PDF copy a while back, and if I can ever find a physical copy that's not incredibly expensive I'd certainly buy it.

It's never too late to learn book binding ;)

I'll probably try and make a book of this some day, but first I'm going to make a copy of R. Hammings' The Art of Science and Engineering.

Maybe an example of this: http://www.michaeleisen.org/blog/?p=358

It's actually just rare and out of print.

Maybe yes, because it's now $14K. Perhaps someone just bought one at two grand ;) Or maybe it's just the hits.

Edit: OK, there are two sellers at ~$2K and ~$3K. I wonder why Amazon points to the $14K one by default.
