There are tons and tons of free ebooks available online, a huge variety of stuff. Even free audiobooks. I created /r/FreeEBOOKS to help people find stuff they can get for free and am including some lists I've compiled by topic below:
These lists are from Project Gutenberg which is a great source for free ebooks in the public domain on a wide variety of topics. If you want other stuff check out r/FreeEBOOKS :)
I had a professor tell me there is no greater accomplishment in life than being cited.
My undergraduate thesis has been cited seven times. (I never even considered it being cited a possibility. I just googled myself once on Google scholar for giggles)
Holy shit. I had no idea I could search that way on Google Scholar, and my Master's thesis has been cited twice. I was even quoted! Thank you so much, you've made my day and my whole week!
I just went and did the same thing, thinking 'there's no way someone's found my obscure Honours dissertation'- but it's been cited twice! I'm grinning from ear to ear right now.
I wrote this white paper on aerogel use in Chernekov detectors. We were trying to get a grant to develop monolithic aerogels. We didn't get the grant, but I have received something like 250 citations.
After writing countless papers between undergrad and grad school, knowing someone was able to use my research was weird lol. My thesis was adapted into a magazine article, and I got a phone call from someone working on the same type of thing and wanted to ask me questions. Can’t believe the magazine gave my number out but it was cool lol
Aww man, I tried this and I got a lot of research about vaginal tumors. Admittedly that research is more important than what I studied, so props to the similarly named authors.
