People are more important than things. That motto lies at the heart of what we believe at East West Bookstore, lending a certain resonance to our partnership with Google and its philosophy of "focus on the user and all else will follow."East West is not just a business. It is above all a resource for
expansive ideas, a retreat from ordinary life, and a gathering place in
support of community ideals and spiritual growth. True spirituality is
always current, vibrant, and applicable to daily life, not something to
be hidden away or buried in the depths of history. In that spirit, East
West always strives to evolve and adapt to people's current needs. One
of our fun new evolutions this past year has been our integration with
Google to sell Google eBooks on our website.
Our partnership has given us a complete ebookstore,
with a vast selection, so that as more and more people move to ebooks,
we'll be there ready for them. Since we rely heavily (like all
independent bookstores) on people who love helping to support us, we're
glad we can offer them this way of doing so. And when you buy a Google
eBook from us, you're supporting more than just East West. You're
serving our whole community by supporting an important spiritual and
cultural resource that is unique in the Bay Area.
