It appears that during this lockdown Springer is making lots of expensive scientific books available for free. Open the pdf file and you will see a complete list of books with the relative links. You'll be redirected to the Springer webpage and there you can freely download any of those books mentioned in the list!

PS: I'd like to download a book about statistics and data analysis, do you happen to be familiar with some of the books in the list?

I like this book, which was used in a course I took in Spring 2019.

(ISLR) Introduction to Statistical Learning with Applications in R, by
Gareth James, Daniela Witten, Trevor Hastie & Robert Tibshirani. Publ. Springer,
New York (2017). ISBN-10: 1461471370. ISBN-13: 978-1461471370


It has already been free for some time. You can download from Springer here: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4614-7138-7
(NOTE: the free download is no longer available from that link)

Or go to the website with the companion course -
Note, this is a new link from the author - https://www.statlearning.com/

@Keith_McClary Great page! I really went to town on some of those books. A lot of them look pretty interesting.

Thanks for posting.
