Why Free Books?
Very simple answer: Over the past 30 years, the consumer price index (CPI) increased by 270%. Over the same time period, textbook prices increased by 1000%, almost a four-fold increase compared to CPI?
This free-textbooks project represents a collective effort by the four authors listed below to address the textbook-price problem faced by students, albeit in only one narrow area within only one discipline, but it's a start. Over the past 30 years, we published numerous highly successful textbooks with several publishers, so we decided to combine our efforts behind this new project of making textbooks free for students.
$ Savings For Students
Since its inception in August of 2018, the Free Electrical Engineering Textbook Initiative has saved students an estimated $10 million in textbook costs.
