The National Academies Press--Free Online Books.
This posting is a followup to the previous posting about the Computer
Science book from the National Academies Press (NAP). NAP is a valuable
resource for free online books of academic value, books that can be
used for instruction and for research. The online inventory includes
more than 3000 books on subjects ranging from Agriculture to Urban
Development. "The National Academies Press (NAP) was created by the National Academies to publish the reports issued by the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, the Institute of Medicine, and the National Research Council,
all operating under a charter granted by the Congress of the United
States. NAP publishes over 200 books a year on a wide range of topics
in science, engineering, and health, capturing the most authoritative
views on important issues in science and health policy. The
institutions represented by NAP are unique in that they attract the
nation's leading experts in every field to serve on their blue ribbon
panels and committees. " NAP is a higher education book repository of
great value. JH [EduResources Weblog--Higher Education Resources Online]
