Wikibooks

March 10th, 2010

I just “discovered” a new online treasure… wikibooks… I’ve looked at some wikibooks before a few years back, but most of them were incomplete at that time… (I think wikibook was still a very new concept then)

Recently, I’m contemplating doing a research programme in Computer Science, so I need to do the GRE in Computer Science… I realize that there’s very few good books available to help me prepare for the test… Luckily, through some forums, I found out about some very good Computer Science books on Wikibooks… and the best part is, these books can be downloaded as a pdf file for me to read offline… the rendering is fantastic too… Simply too good to be true….

Here’s the link to the main page if you are interested:

  1. Scroll down to “Bookshelves” to search for the topics you are interested in.
  2. There’s a link on the left menu (Create a book) that allows you to export multiple pages into a single pdf book.
