Where do you pirate your books? Whenever I try to find a book, all I get is some shitty raw unformatted 15000 pages pdf version. How do I find the actual books?

libgen, otherwise I just buy it if it's under fifty bucks or just pretend I didn't need it anyway if it's over

Owning actual books is fun. It's easier to study off a computer with less distractions, and there's security from "owning" the information.

True... b-ok.cc is good. But medicine is not great

What i am saying is that "usually" doctors tend to buy book as money is never "usually" a issue for them.. So i think thats why it is hard to find pirated medical books

Indians are translating old soviet maths, engineering and science books into english. Check out mirtitles.org

Or if you know russian they’ve got vast djvu format library of soviet textbooks up.

That is if you fancy soviet text books at all.

Why not translate from soviet text books?
Gelfands books are recommended around here aren’t they?

Soviet books were widely available in india in the 70s for some reason.

Soviets were really invested into maths and science education. You literally received a minimum wage (which was enough to live on your own, cleaners salary equivalent) if you went to study maths at university. Without mathematics your job/study prospects was cleaning or storage security.

The soviets were really good at maths and science as a result. I guess the Indians recognise that value. Modern russians still refer to soviet books to pass their exams.

Doctors are also more often than not retarded normies who don't belong in the field.
So your average EE or Physics student is more than willing to put the work in to get a good rip of a textbook because they care about the subject matter, but a doctor isn't going to do that shit because all they care about is "becoming a doctor". The actual act of studying means nothing to them. The proliferation of information means nothing to them. They just want that sweet sweet affirmation that they're a good person for "becoming a doctor".

I used to torrent things from various sites, then I found bookfi.net. Just ignore the weird russian adverts, and they have like 2/3 of the things I've searched available for direct download.

Just use a VPN.
