Hello All,

Short version - head to Amazon and click the "Tell the Publisher! - I'd like to read this book on Kindle" Link is usually mid way down on the right edge.
I do not care what e-book version it is, but we need more ebooks. I would recommend other sites, if I know of any left.

To be honest, I have not read many paper books in the last 15-20 years. One reason is my dyslexia seems to have gotten worse, and I really like the ability to increase the font in an ebooks form. The second reason, is my mobility, I like many of you are consonantly on the move and my tablet (Surface Pro 6) goes everywhere with me.

So a few months ago, I asked the forums for recommended books on Technical Diving. One local diver lent me his Advance Nitrox Book from TDI and Deco for Divers. These were a bear to get through (sadly did not finish Deco), because of the size of the font. My glasses prescription is set for reading computers screen more then paper books.

I would suggest PDF format, but as other SB forums members have stated, this format is to easy to pass around to your friends.

Anyways, I started off be clicking the both of Mark Powell books, Intro to Tech and Deco for Divers. Figure I just may spend some clicking these books, since work is shut down for at least another month.

Good luck all, stay safe.
 
I bought Deco For Divers as e-book back in 2017 from KOBO (www.kobo.com), though it's no longer available that title in their site.
I second you with this. I prefer e-books over paper copies.
Besides I live in South America with a bananer government (as we say here). US dollar is beyond the clouds and importations are, in fact, closed, so getting a book in paper format is unthinkable.
Converting an e-book from one of the several e-readers to pdf format is, though possible, a nightmare and time consuming.
