Yes, you are right, it is in the "Read Online Mode", so it is not downloadable in a pdf/ePub format.

The book is relatively new and I assume it is still available. Perhaps they will change its status when it sells out? I do not know what the policy of the Presses universitaires de Strasbourg is, maybe someone on the list knows more?

Indeed,but unless I am wrong, or they have changed something from the way things were set up initially, it is only possible to read online, not to download or copy--a strange decision, I believe. I suppose at some point someone will scan a printed book...

Jonathan (PS thanks for the shout-out of the review; I sparately reviewed other publications of the author on Burnouf's nachlass, which also are not available in PDF.)
