Since 1994 we have offered “Read for Free” options for almost all our titles. In addition, we have been offering free downloads of most of our titles to everyone and of all titles to readers in the developing world. We are now going one step further. Effective June 2nd, PDFs of reports that are currently for sale on the National Academies Press (NAP) Website and PDFs associated with future reports* will be offered free of charge to all Web visitors."

Such things as the NAS report, Ballistic Imaging, The Age of Expert Testimony, etc. It looks like some of the books intended for more popular lay readership are not included, understandably. No obligation, no registration.
