The version Flat World uses is called an "Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike" license. Users are free to share and remix our textbooks, if they attribute the work to the author, don't use the work for commercial purposes, and distribute their remixed version under the original license. Students can access free Web-hosted books, or buy print and DRM-free digital versions that never expire and can be transferred from device to device. We generate revenue through the sale of physical books, e-books for the iPad or Kindle, audio books, print-it-yourself PDF downloads and interactive study aids for $40 or less.
