Note: O'Harrow's book is delivered in DejaVu format, a wonderful free format for the representation of scanned documents like books, much more efficient and powerful than PDF, which we will also use for other readings. If you are using a free software operating system, your Firefox browser already contains a viewer for djvu files. Otherwise, there are plugins to read djvu in your browser, whether you are stuck with Microbrain Windoze or have nothing better to compute with than a rotten Apple.
