I got myself one of them Kindle 3 things. Having spent 15 years writing on financial stuff, I decided to convert some to an eBook format -- for the Kindle. I tried to delete links to Internet web sites and massage the format a mite so it'd look respectable on the Kindle. Sometimes I succeeded ... and sometimes not. Sometimes there are vague references to spreadsheets The collection of Excel spreadsheets is here.   There's also a partial list here. Nevertheless, I reckon they're (sort of) readable. The Kindle 3 is grayscale -- yet many diagrams are meant to be in colour, eh? So ya gotta use yer imagination.

Here's a list of what's available (as of August 30, 2010). Note: Click on the to see the Internet version:

Technical Analysis	Return Distributions	Value at Risk	Candlesticks	Spearman Correlation
Omega	Zweig	Efficient Frontier(s)	a Magic Sum	Slice & Dice
Beta	Drawdown	Sortino Ratio	Hikkake Candlesticks	Williams %R
Chaikin Oscillator	Kurtosis	Raff Regression	Momentum	Average Returns
a Modified Bollinger	Predictors	Missing Days	Hi-Lo Oscillator	Gain-Loss Spread
Parabolic Fit	Random Walks	Monte Carlo	Fractals	more Fractals

P.S. On the kindle, Landscape mode is (probably) best.

eBook Novels

I've written a few novels, some finished, some "in progress".

Since eBooks have become such a big thing, I figured I should make mine available(in .prc format)
so (hopefully?) they can be read by eBook readers.

Anyway, the ones that are finished are here (in ebook format):

Whither Willow? Horror

the Runner Sci Fi

the World of Sharlain Fantasy

Digger the Worm Children's Story

The ones that are incomplete are here:

Weed Medical Thriller

Pink Mystery

eBook Odds n Ends

I've also written a few things that piqued my interest and thought that others might enjoy 'em.

They're here (in ebook format) -- click on the to see the Internet version:

Optical Disks

Deja Vu

Polling

Relativity

Small World

Membrane Theory

Membrane Theory: Pt 2

Then there's:

History of Computers

History of the Internet

TV Stuff

Pixels

And this:

Blood Sugar   Glycemic stuff

and

the Hutchison Effect   Elections

and

Plate Tectonics

eBooks on Calculus

Okay, a few lectures on the Calculus, in pdf format. Just download 'em as is (with a right-click). Kindle will read 'em.

Calculus 1

Calculus 2

Calculus 3

Calculus 4
