And not fair to the authors of those books, who inevitably put a lot more
effort into the book than they get back in royalties. Writing nearly any
technical book is not a way to make money.

However, one book you can download for free now, legitimately, is Higher
Order Perl:

I still owe MJD a review. For now, I will continue to substitute the ::Tiny
version:

    Don't just buy this book; read it.
