There’s a free HTML version on my website, which has some green-boxed updates. But even without those, the book is an excellent beginner’s guide to the interest rate markets. (I am the author, so might be thought not to have a NPoV.)

It's a PDF, but I'll be converting it to Kindle and epub after it's released.

Also, if the cost of a $39 book that might be able to help you raise your rates, thus resulting in thousands of extra dollars is too high... Well :-)

Looks like there's an official free web version as well.

Thanks for the mention! The book is free to read online and was updated to ECMAScript 2020 last week.

It's not at all obvious from the headline, but the news is that the book is FREE, you can download the PDF from the first link.

Oh, nice, there's a free version. I bought the 2" thick paperback.

There is an ebook version floating around the internet.

The book seems really interesting but I am quite poor so thanks for making a free web version available. I'll think of buying the epub when I earn a wage <3

Thanks for the link. I just bought your book from Amazon. Paper version.

Easy way to tell is if it is available from the author's website.

I believe there's only a PDF version, and the author encourages you to print it. It's a monumental effort to make that kind of book, so it's pretty amazing he released it free.

Thanks for that link, did not know that was freely available! It's a blast to read.

I actually emailed the author about this. He is in the process of revising the site for C. It will be available for free, or so he told me.

Congratulations, this looks amazing! I enjoyed reading the web version over the last few years and learned a lot from it. Now I'm looking forward to owning the hard copy as well :)
