However, it is not a good thing to buy this from Amazon. People should buy the Emacs manual from the FSF directly. Likewise for any book from a small publisher: order it from the publisher, not from Amazon. Also keep in mind that Amazon is the maker of the DRM-inflicting Swindle e-book reader. That is a good reason not to buy from them.
