Best place to find textbook pdf's?? (EarthSci 2WW3)
Hey,

So I can't find the pdf textbook for Earth Sci 2ww3 and was wondering if anyone knew the best places to look for it. I know it's online because some douche is selling the link for $20. The text is " Water Sustainability: A Global Perspective" by Anthony Jones

Hey guys if there are 3 or 4 of us. One of us could just buy the book and then just split it between 4 people. I don't think i would mind paying like $5 for it! Almost worth the time spent looking for it!

You can try filehosting sites, torrents or simply just googling. However links for these are not allowed to be posted.

I say we buy it and split the cost. It would be much easier, and only come out to a few dollars each person!

The average textbook is over 100$, so the only way it could come out to a few dollars is if you had 25-100 people pitch in for it..



Good idea though, everyone always has this in mind, but nobody actually goes splits with anyone, for some reason.

The one time I bought and split a hardcopy textbook, they changed it the following year so we couldn't sell it. It was kind of annoying. I can definitely see the appeal of splitting a digital version that two people can access at the same time tho.

I was just gonna say this. I have checked so many torrent sights and I can't find it. I would be down to split the cost and buy the pdf for like $2 -$5. But I would still be pissed lol.

yea agreeed ... what are we going to do then? i have a girl selling it to me on wednesday for 15 .. well she said shes going to try to because she bought it initially off the website and she's only allowed to copy/paste a certain amount of times ... she said it's really good for ctrl+f-ing for the quizzes and what not
