Come and read No Straight Lines as an Open Access participatory book.

www.no-straight-lines.com

This is what our participatory browser book looks like

The browser book is open access and designed to be participatory. You can ask questions of the author Alan, and you can also leave comments in the social tab. We will ask you to log in via a social account. This is NOT because we want to use your data in any other way than to verify that you are a real person, not a spammer or some deranged individual. We will not share that data, or sell that data.

The only thing we will do is to ask your permission as a means of entry to reading an entire work which took 7 years to produce, without financial payment is to let your friends know that you are now reading No Straight Lines.

We thought that was fair. If you disagree then let us know.

Or you could add No Straight Lines to your bookshelf Amazon: http://ht.ly/8CJGm

Or you could add No Straight Lines to your Kindle: http://ht.ly/9lrpQ
