Five StarsBy Frances P.Beautiful.12 of 12 people found the following review helpful. Kindle versionBy CustomerUpdate: I contacted the publisher and received the nicest reply and learned that Page Flip is something must enable and it takes them awhile to do it. The ToC are links so one can navigate that way; too.Original: I downloaded it and expected to use this book in my Kindle ipad app; but I gave it a quick once over and its not very functional as it is.The images in the book dont seem to be intended for enlargementmdash;some are blurry when enlarged; which is a loss as the iPad Air 2 screen is smaller than the print edition and some of the images are too small if not enlarged. Also; it doesnt have the Page Flip skim feature which is important for a book of this type. I will return the ebook and may purchase the print version; instead; because I liked what I saw in the sample. (I dont feel right reading the ebook because I expect to return it; thus I cant offer more on the contente.)I would like to see ebook feaures included in the description for informed purchases. The samples dont include all features.
