All files are in PDF format and are bookmarked for easy navigation. Not sure what an "eBook" is? The term 'eBook' simply means "electronic book", meant for viewing on your computer or other device. eBooks usually come in Adobe PDF format, as the one being offered in this auction. All that is required to read the eBook is a software program called Adobe Acrobat Reader, which will open PDF files. Most computers already have the Adobe Acrobat reader software already installed, but in the rare instance your computer may not have it, you can download the latest version for FREE at www.adobe.com. For viewing on a mobile device such as Kindle, iPhone, Droid, etc. you must have an 'app' installed which allows reading of PDF files. With an eBook, you can read books on your computer screen and zoom in on the text to make the words as big as you would like them to be to read comfortably! You can also go to any page or chapter in the book with just a few mouse clicks, even if the book has thousands of pages! You can also print out any or all pages you like at your convenience. With some eBooks, you even have the capability to copy and paste the text of the book into another computer file, instead of retyping by hand. These are just a few of the features and conveniences of having a book in electronic format. I will send this item by postal mail.
