Mike and Bill
The reason the english version of the Powerful Ideas Book is not available in English is because I am not willing to make it so. So I would appreciate if you do not make it available. It is in conflict with a contract that I have if you give this out to anyone. I believe that you should have at least made an effort to contact me and ask me about this. I do not want the english version of my book to be given away for free in hard copy or in pdf format. So please do not do so.
Thanks

Hi Bill,
I own the book too, but your question made me think it would be nice to have this in my Amazon Kindle DX. So I searched a while on Google and found a copy of the PDF cached here at a university in Germany:

The 5.5mb file opened fine. It also looks OK on the Kindle. The lack of color is tolerable.
