​

This book is available in both EPUB and PDF formats. Each has advantages and limitations. Choose either one (or both). Enjoy!  :)

​

• EPUB: Advantage: Has the look of a traditional book Limitations: (1) Not searchable (2) No live links 

• PDF: Advantages: Content is searchable and links are clickable.  Limitations: Document rather than book layout 
   

(I was unable to link all formats here. The PDF link will take you to my new free Patreon page, where you'll find both downloads—The Art of Listening ebook and The Art of Listening pdf—in one place.)
