Click here to enter the eBookstore

To access the Spinifex eBookstore, click on the above link. You will be redirected to a different website, but you can return to our main site at any time. The site you see will display six eBooks that are among our current available titles.

We are currently in the process of converting our hardcopy books into several formats, and the number of eBooks available will increase throughout 2008. At present there are 63 titles available, and they are listed alphabetically, by author, below.

You can also search for titles to see if they are available yet in an eBook format.

As eBooks and eBookstores are something of a recent innovation, many first-time users of such a site can become understandably confused.  To put your mind at ease, a discussion of the ways to use our eBookstore follows. 

How to use the Spinifex eBookstore

Use it like a bricks-and-mortar bookstore, where you might browse to find out if the book you to help decide if the book in your hands interests you, or is relevant for study or research purposes.

Use it to view the first 10-15 pages of the book for free, as well as its preliminary pages, which are those located at the beginning with contents, copyright and other information.

Use it for searches, to see if the book features relevant information. A search scans the entire document, so if the word or phrase is in the book it will appear in the search, in context, and show you how many times it's mentioned.

Use it to gain further access by subscribing to or purchasing eBook content. Or, you can click on print copy to order a hard copy of the text from our secure website.

The information you've found will also assist you in ordering copies through your favourite local bookstore, and in making a request for your library to purchase the book.

Information for booksellers

Booksellers should contact us directly if you want to sell our eBooks. In the UK, our eBooks are available from Gardners Books, and in the USA through the Independent Publishers Group (IPG) and many other channels.

If you work in an educational institution and are looking for desk copies relevant to your area of study, please peruse our eBooks. Depending on where your location, desk copies are available through Spinifex distributors in Australia, NZ, USA, Canada and UK, or directly from Spinifex.
