Time to learn during down time with free books

Covid 19 also known as SARS2 has affected everyone. While away from workplaces means lack of access sometimes to the library resources available while on campus. Learners, teachers, and researchers can now keep themselves even busier using the free resources made available by publishers for avid learners.
Although many books are available online, listed with download links in excel file here
I liked to have access to the following. I would keep adding the links to the free books I liked/used here.
  1. LaTeX in 24 Hours A Practical Guide for Scientific Writing By Dilip Datta published 2017
  2. A Primer on Scientific Programming with Python 5th edition by  Hans Petter Langtangen published 2016 
  3.  Advanced Guide to Python 3 Programming by John Hunt published 2019 
The announcement by the publisher is linked here. Thanks Springer
