Etienne Gilson - The Christian Philosophy of Saint Augustine (Vintage, 1967). 398 pages. Improved version of a scan I did about a year ago. Searchable (clearscan) with contents in bookmarks, accurate pagination, etc. Not perfect, but pretty good quality. description: Overview of Augustine's "Christian philosophy" by Gilson, on of the great Catholic scholars of the last century. Paperback copies of this book are extremely scarce, so get it while you can! ---- Gilson's book Thomism can be found here: https://piratebayproxy.live/torrent/8078115 Various books by St. Augustine can be found here: https://piratebayproxy.live/torrent/8843988 https://piratebayproxy.live/torrent/8465278 https://piratebayproxy.live/torrent/8728063 https://piratebayproxy.live/torrent/4811137

Oh yeah. Thanks for this one, my friend!
Hi pharmakate. You continue to post many of my favorite Catholic books from my younger days. Many thanks.
Is there any place I can see how you scan the paperbacks? Type of scanner, settings and whether you need to take the book apart to get a good scan?
I have a 1957 Image book about Damien the Leper, by John Farrow, that I'd like to scan in the same quality as your scans. Don't expect a complete tutorial, but a few hints would be helpful to me (I think). I have a flatbed scanner and can get whatever software is needed.
Please keep posting what you can, and thanks again!

@darkrats - Hey, I know that Damien the Leper book; think I used to have it.
I use a ScanSnap S1500 sheetfed scanner, which requires the books to be taken apart. But I don't think it's essential to do that -- you can get good results with a flatbed scanner. The Scansnap's great advantage is its speed. I scan in grayscale (except covers) at 300 dpi. Then I process the images with Scan Tailor software -- I think that's essential to getting the best quality output. But there will be a learning curve to using it effectively. I assemble the final images with Acrobat and process with Clearscan. I've also taken to doing very basic editing of cover images using Irfanview.
Feel free to contact me via the forum with any questions.
Glad you like the stuff I post.
