Sources for free/cheap medical textbooks

[tooty]

Aside from the books on torrents, I use:

 

http://medicalbooksfree.com/ for quick pdf textbooks

http://www.bookdepository.com/ for the 'must haves' like bates and netters at prices cheaper than Amazon and Chapters.

 

you guys know of any other sources out there?

I like Google.

What about cma.ca? There are online books for access as long as you're a member.

Do the missing pages interfere at all?

Usually, if I'm looking for a specific answer to a question, it's on the same page within Google books. That being said, Google books is not the only source of textbooks that can be found through Google. Check your library's website as well, as many institutions subscribe to large e-book collections.

I've bought a good number of books from alibris.com

 

There are a wealth of old textbooks - often used - for a tiny fraction of the cost of new ones. I got Dubin for 3 bucks, Bates for 20, JAMA RCE series for 20 bucks, Mini Harrison's for $5... etc etc... only problem is they have to ship to a central distribution centre to reship to you so it takes 3-4 weeks to arrive.
