[OSList] Books!

[Daniel Mezick via OSList]

I think and feel that the SPIRIT book needs to be at the top of the 
book-list: circa 1985 right? The current home is....
http://www.openspaceworld.com/Spirit.pdf
"...I must warn you, this is a very difficult book." - from the Foreword



It seems like the PDF-books on OST are a category. Here are a few of the 
links I know of, for convenience (Harold.)

I hereby apologize for missing anyone who currently offers an HTML or 
PDF book about OST online: here are a few (very interesting!) titles 
freely available I know of now, in HTML and PDF formats:
