Thousands Of Books - FREE

Imagine having access to literally thousands of books and magazines on hundreds of different subjects - without ever leaving your home, and without ever paying a penny.
 
Although heavily North America orientated, that is exactly what you will find on www.issuu.com - truly one of the more amazing facilities on the internet, or anywhere else for that matter.
 
When you visit the site, you will find at the top a string of options - click 'publications' and you get cover photos of the most wanted publications - an eye opener in its own right.
 
On the left hand side, you'll find a whole raft of subject matters - click on the one of your choice, and the most wanted publications in that category will appear. Keep scrolling down, and you get the lot.
 
When you've found the book or magazine you want to read, just click the cover and it will open up at the first page, with a facility to keep turning the page. This has a pretty realistic feel when done with the full screen option.
 
Not found exactly what you are looking for? Never mind, there is a search box - just type in what you want, and a list of books and magazines covering the exact subject of your choice pops up.
 
Altogether a quite extraordinary service, whether you use it for the pure pleasure of reading or as a research tool for anything you want to know more about.
