For [[Great Renunciation]]. I just need the pages that deal with the Buddha's early youth, from the moment he started to think about renouncing the life in the palace until his actual departure.

:{{ping|Farang Rak Tham}} There are another two edition of the book which I have access through my University library. (1) 2003 edition published from India {{oclc|52964744}} & (2) 1963 edition (probably original ed.) {{oclc|465324311}}. Will they work for you ? --[[User:Gazal world|Gazal world]] ([[User talk:Gazal world|talk]]) 19:17, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

:{{ping|Farang Rak Tham}} I just came to know that the book is belong to the sister library of my university library. I will be able to visit this sister library on 27 November, and will be able to scan the relevant pages.

::{{re|Farang Rak Tham}} Ah, Hell. So, my college's scanner doesn't have a large enough surface area to do double-page scan. This means I'm going to need to make roughly 60 single-page scans, half of which will be upside down, then print 60 one-page PDFs, and then scan them all again into a single file so that I'm not emailing you 60 PDFs. It's going to be a few days before I have time to complete this. <span style="white-space: nowrap;">—[[User:Compassionate727|Compassionate727]]&nbsp;<sup>([[User talk:Compassionate727|T]]·[[Special:Contributions/Compassionate727|C]])</sup></span> 15:34, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

::::{{re|Farang Rak Tham}} Well, I'll need to print and rescan half of them anyway just to correct the page orientation, so there's little reason not to do the other half and just combine them all. But that's not what I replied to say: I need to ask, are you trying to construct a historical or a religious narrative of Buddha's life? The reason I ask is that the first twenty pages of the roughly 70 or 80 I'll ultimately need to copy deal with Buddha's prior lives, which is information that will be valuable for the religious but not the historical narrative. The additional work to scan those pages will be quite little, so I'm happy to do it, but if that information will be completely useless to you, then I won't bother. <span style="white-space: nowrap;">—[[User:Compassionate727|Compassionate727]]&nbsp;<sup>([[User talk:Compassionate727|T]]·[[Special:Contributions/Compassionate727|C]])</sup></span> 19:22, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
::::: {{re|Compassionate727}}, I just need the last life of the Buddha, not his previous lives; so just the "historical" part of his life.

:{{re|Farang Rak Tham}} In light of how much less progress I've made on schoolwork lately than I need to be making, I'm going to need to punt on completing this.

:{{u|KAVEBEAR}}, you cannot request an entire book that's still in copyright (see rules at top of page). According to the website it was first published in 1961, how can it be in the public ___domain? <span style="background:Black;padding:1px 5px">[[User:Buidhe|<b style="color: White">b</b>]][[User talk:Buidhe|<b style="color: White">uidh</b>]][[Special:Contributions/Buidhe|<b style="color: White">e</b>]]</span> 18:53, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
::PS I do have access to the book via Ebook Central, if there is a section (less than 10% of pages) you want I would be happy to send it to you. <span style="background:Black;padding:1px 5px">[[User:Buidhe|<b style="color: White">b</b>]][[User talk:Buidhe|<b style="color: White">uidh</b>]][[Special:Contributions/Buidhe|<b style="color: White">e</b>]]</span> 18:56, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
:::Well, I really want to read Chapter 6 through Chapter 12. But I have to choose than maybe just Chapter 10 and Chapter 11. I realized that there was some rule like that.

::{{ping|Lingzhi2}} I've sent you chapters 6, 7 and 8 from Oxford Scholarship Online which cover the pages you requested, including Figure 6.1. Unfortunately the page numbers start from 1 in each chapter, but using that Google Book preview you should be able to work out what the real page numbers are.
