To be clear there are gobs of Kindle books that are free or cost $0.99 and yet are some of the best value one could buy. Some free Kindle books would cost upwards of $30 or even $75 dollars if purchased as a paperback or hardcover. This; volume; however; looks as though it was somehow scanned with an OCR (optical character recognition) software package that was unable to recognize the characters. The result is that almost every page has at least two several-character typos. The typos are at first only disappointing to the diligent scholar; but by page 20 or so; they are unacceptable. Worse than setting one back $0.99; the product is just a time waster.Persons reading this review (sorry ; but the truth should prevail) would do better to skip it look elsewhere. I haven't found another title that answers this title's thesis or I would recommend it. If the scan had gone properly; I would probably be reading this title right now.11 of 11 people found the following review helpful. Don't buy this version.By Justin Mark BrownIt's bootleg; simply put. The front cover looks photocopied; there's some street art on the back with red font...The page numbers are all messed up; the footnote numbers are way too big. It's just a mess. I don't know why would have this version as the first result when you search the book's title. Something they should change...0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Good versionBy Leon LamMax Weber's groundbreaking study of Protestantism needs not further introduction. Kalberg; as the translator of such a masterpiece; produce an English version that is easy to follow. His succinct introduction to Weber's thesis and other possible factors leading to the birth of capitalism is sound and clear. A good book for beginners of sociology.
