Towards a new socialism: improved ePub

[Q]

So, I was interested in this book, but the ePub was just god awful (http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/~cottrell/socialism_book/): A simple PDF conversion without any editing whatsoever. So, I took it on me to convert the complete book to a readable layout.

So, I would like to share this (http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/416751/Towards-a-new-socialism---Cockshott-Cottrell-epub.html) :)

Link to updated version (https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3Me8-RmOEsPblBjTms3M0t1dEk/edit?usp=sharing) (11 May 2013).

Do you need an account to access it?
I've downloaded the PDF anyway. Thanks for sharing

[Q]

No, you need to wait for 15 seconds before you can click "download". But it's a free service.

So you finished those 10 chapters already that were left already? Neat.

Thank you! Finally, an IBook rather than horrible PDFs!
You marvellous human being.

It's called an e-book, "iBooks" is Apple marketing ;)

But more stuff will be coming. I'll upload them in time :)

[Brutus]

It opened as an iBook for me! Probably because I'm on an iPhone.

Why don't you build up a repository on a service such as


Google Drive
Microsoft SkyDrive

Comrade Q's Wizadry is beyond compare.

That's actually a good idea. I'll make sure to use services like those next time.

[The Idler]

I use both and they're great.

I skimmed again over the ePub and fixed a few more mistakes. OP has been updated with new link (using Google Drive now ;) ).

Did you at least use the publicly available PDF (on their website) as the basis for this ePub?

Uh, obviously. What other possibilities were there?

I took the existing ePub and then skimmed over it using the PDF as a template for the desired formatting.
