Floating serenely through a peaceful abyss, a sigh escapes; content.
A siren wails, you're jolted from your respite
/dev/xsdb1 is at 100%
A cacophony of alerts screech from the phone.
Upset is the fragile balance, failure cascades.
Was only a matter of time.
Get some coffee.
All you ping seems to crumble, machine after machine fall; a massacre of uptime.

Download a McGraw Hill Education eTextbook

If you purchase a textbook from McGraw Hill, the website to view it is clunky and only works on some devices. You can't go to specific page numbers, the search is super slow, etc. That's why I wrote this script to download the textbook as an ePub file for your own viewing.

Using this script is 100% legal. McGraw Hill publicly hosts their ebooks online in order for their web client to download it. Moreover, to use it, you must already have purchased the book you would like to download, so it is legally yours to use as you please. However, it IS illegal to use this for piracy purposes. DO NOT DISTRIBUTE ANY TEXTBOOKS YOU DOWNLOAD USING THIS SCRIPT.
