    Hi everyone

    I found book which is the one and only (related to my dissertation) it is available in PDF, -but its in German!
    I will be sick and tired trying to translate 470 pages using Google translate, which would translate only few lines anyway, despite the funny translation sometimes. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks

    There is a link below the google translate box where you can upload a file and it converts the entire document. I tried it with a word doc once but it did not work with a pdf I just tried due to encoding or something, you may need to copy and paste everything in the pdf to a word file.
