In summary, the conversation is about someone looking for a book called "The Art of Problem Solving Introduction to Algebra" by Richard Rusczyk. They ask if anyone has heard of the book and if it is any good. They then ask for recommendations on where to download free PDFs, mentioning Amazon, Chapters, and a public library's online portal. They also suggest searching on Google for file sharing sites. However, they mention that buying the book allows for writing notes in the margins, which can be useful.

Maybe you might want to try Amazon, Chapters, or even, if god don't forbid it, a bookstore.

Or, if you are in Toronto, as I am, and happen to have a login for the public library's portal to safari, as I do, you can choose from a vast array of up to date books and instructional videos for free (well, I do pay taxes so it's not completely free).

Then again, if you are devious, you could always search google for the "book title" and ("rapidshare" or "hotfile" or a number of different file sharing sites)

But, if you buy the book, you get to write notes in the margins; a capability the kind of which I do find to be extremely useful from time to time.
