Textbook Revolution is the web’s source for free educational materials. This is a student-run, volunteer-operated website started in response to the textbook industry’s constant drive to maximize profits instead of educational value.
Welcome to Wikibooks, a Wikimedia project that was started on July 10, 2003 with the mission to create a free collection of open-content textbooks that anyone can edit. Since our founding, volunteers have written about 27,501 modules in a multitude of textbooks.
The central place to ask questions or discuss ideas is the Reading Room (this is the equivalent to Wikipedia?s Village Pump; Wikipedians may wish to read our primer before getting started). See also the mailing list.
If you?re an instructor planning on using Wikibooks for a class project, please read our guidelines for class projects.
This is the actual survey data that concludes: "The survey reveals a nation whose book readers, on the whole, can hardly be called ravenous. The typical person claimed to have read four books in the last year -- half read more and half read fewer. Excluding those who hadn't read any, the usual number read was seven."
This online library of illustrated books is a volunteer-driven project. It has grown slowly since 1996 from the work of a single man and a handful of books, to a vibrant volunteer-driven organization publishing new books and translations every week.
As you explore our library, we hope you will find a comfortable niche or two in these tens of thousands of beautifully illustrated pages that our dedicated volunteers have gathered together over the years.
Search, compare, and save at >40 bookstores, 20,000 dealers, and millions of books.

The following is a list of great titles, most of which are fairly cheap. Not all of them are suitable for the mathematically illiterate though, and thus cannot simply be considered popular science. In the description I’ll give you fair warning if a particular title is better suited to those who are more advanced when it comes to math.
