I’ve worked on this book for a year. I was originally planning to publish this with Oxford University Press but I’ve decided to give up that prestige, release it open source book that all of you guys can learn from, boost your CVs. Why the early release? Raising money for refugees.

There is enough pain, war and poverty in the world today and things are expensive enough as it is. Education was my grandma’s last gift to me, sharing this is so much more gratifying than selling it.

I don’t want personal gain via money or gratuity for this. Instead if you find any benefit from this then I ask you to donate to the 700,000 displaced Lebanese refugees who are fasting for Ramadan but don’t know where they will get their next meal. I tried setting up a gofundme but they suck as usual so please use this buy a coffee link instead, it's all going to the refugees: https://lnkd.in/eznWQzgu

Btw even more fun, help me edit (since I’m releasing it prematurely there are nits everywhere, immortalise yourself in information geometry glory forever).
