Have you noticed our eBook selection recently? We're so excited how popular it's been and we've been adding titles every week. I'm finding it really convient to have all my files with me when I'm traveling - so I don't have to lug around books or pieces of paper that, in my case anyway, will inevitably get lost Many are from our IDP designers - so many great titles!
