    I usually buy books and often you can save a lot of money using the following technique

    First, check book price search engines, e.g.
    www.fetchbook.info
    www.bookbutler.co.uk

    Always check Amazon.co.uk marketplace for a bargain, and click on different versions too, see if they are appropriate.

    For older books, try
    www.vialibri.net

    If the cheapest is www.Abebooks.co.uk or www.whsmith.co.uk, save another 5-8% using www.quidco.com if you want.
    If you find a book seller selling it at ?X, often they have their own online sites, selling it a little less than their Amazon/Abebooks price.

    online

    Remember to check www.books.google.com as you can often read some of the book online.

    In rare cases, if you google the book title and author and pdf, you might find a downloadable copy.

    Try www.scribd.com
    www.ebook3000.com
    www.avaxhome.ws/ebooks/theology_occultism
    www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page
    www.pdf-search-engine.com

    universities (worldwide also)

    If you live near a large university, and have access to their library, they often have very good, rare, or expensive Islam/Muslim/Quran books, e.g. SOAS in London.

    There are many many books available.

    All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

      Excellent topic.

      I can remember you mentioned a book by Osho called Love, Freedom, Aloneness in another topic. Been searching high and low for this online for a free pdf (yeh i know very bad lol) but might part my money if you recommend its worth a read.

      PEACE

        It's good conceptually. I recommended it to two others, who liked it. Osho has a lot of videos on youtube, if you like them, then you may wish to buy it.
