“Today, the book has been through
more printings than I can keep track
of, been translated into more
languages than I know, and has been
downloaded more than 750,000
times from my site alone (I don't
know the total number of downloads,
because, of course, anyone is free to
redistribute it).”

Commons is a big part of why Iʼm now able to make
a living this way.”
