    Here we go again with all these PDF postings. The last time they didn't disappear until I and possibly others complained to Google outright. Sure they marked them as abuse but they kept appearing under new names. Now, we have it again.

    I also reported them to at least two publishers.

    As did I.

    I read in the IT media a little while ago that a text-book pirating
    network had been shut down. I don't know if it was the one we were
    seeing a few months back but my guess is that the latest excrescence is
    someone who'd been keeping their head down whilst enforcement was
    happening and now thinks it's safe to start up. It seems likely that
    it's closely related to the previous problem - someone insufficiently
    literate to be able to distinguish between "medical" and "medieval".

    I'll dig out the address of the previous publisher contact I had...

    The one on psoriasis is from CDC Press, and the other (which is not the latest edition) is from Elsevier.
