No...

I know some of the authors, so i got a digital copy.

Creative economics should have a CD?

Why are you asking? I am not going to give you a copy

HSC publishers would not make their textbooks available in PDF because then no-one would need to buy them... You would all share them with each other costlessly. Books with a niche market are rarely made available electronically.

Yet Mathematics/Physics/Chemistry textbooks can be found as PDF's with their respective hard copy textbooks.

I don't see why the authors of the Economics textbooks can't do the same - especially with the Dixon and Riley textbooks.

Just to let you know, asking for electronic copies is a quick way to get yourself banned from this site

That is what our school does. Since everyone in the school has a laptop, the school just puts it in this folder that everyone can access and we all get our textbooks from there.

No, and stop asking for them.

No one is going to give a electronical copy to you



Tim Dixon and Tim Riley don't want their book shared illegally

However, is it possible to obtain a digital copy IF you buy the hard copy of the book?
