Google Offers Free Books

Google plans to let surfers download complete texts of public domain books. “Using Google’s Book Search service, Web surfers hunting titles like Dante’s ‘Inferno’ and Aesop’s ‘Fables’ will be able to download PDF files of the books for later reading, to run keyword searches or to print them on paper. Up to now, the service only allowed people to read the out-of-copyright books online.”
