Sure, you can probably find some really bad scan of this online somewhere which is why Ralph will never publish a 2nd edition (which he had been planning until he found a terrible scanned version on some torrent)....but if you're serious, that isn't going to help you much.  You can't search it, and you can't flip back and forth to find anything in any way that won't have you hating the process until you give up.

There is a good quality scan version of it, you can search in it and it has a chapter menu so ther is a good one out there, but as you say nothing beats the original, if I could spare the cash right now I would buy it :).

You don't need an expensive book to do serious Amiga programming. The whole notion seems absurd.


Nothing beats a properly scanned version that's searchable. Much preferable to a paper version which can't be searched. Major back draw of books, IMHO.

You are right, But nothing beats owning the original for me even if I use the digital one more, the feeling of having the real thing is nice :)
