Speaking of *experience*, did you try the link I posted above? I'm off campus using a random browser, and that link works fine for me, showing my whole book evidently for free. If I were to login through a campus proxy thing, then I get a different URL entirely, but I also get extra privileges, e.g., the ability to download pdf's of chapters.
