I am sorry I have no copy of those books.
I read some of them online a certain years ago.
However, careful search can hit any of them. Other than request here, please try it yourself as well.

Your assumption is forgiven because you don't know me, but I have access to many publications on PDF via my university website. However, I always prefer to have a printed textbook.

All the same, I know some books are either too expensive or too new to have any used books out there, even ex libris copies (cancelled library books, I mean).

I regularly use my universities' intranet portals to access articles on PDF, but rarely do I get access to the full books. I'll check this website out.

PDF books are my second option Jun 15, 2017

Hi, Jean,
Yes, of course. Although a PDF book may be superior in terms of making annotations, bookmarks, and other stuff, and may be very portable, I am old school and still go to printed books as my first choice. Thanks.
