I fretted about this for weeks but I finally pulled the trigger. My book BPMN Method and Style is now available as a Kindle ebook, compatible with Kindle, Kindle Fire, Kindle for iPad, or Kindle for PC. I got a lot of requests for this, especially international, so we’ll see if there is a market for it or not. I worked hard on the graphics. In the end there is only so much you can do with them in Kindle format. They are readable, but you need good eyes for a few. Also, Kindle isn’t the greatest format for a reference book when you want to flip immediately to a particular section. The table of contents at the beginning has links down to the Heading3 level… that’s the best I could do. Maybe the best thing about the Kindle edition is the price – $9.99. I notice that the other BPMN books on Kindle have much higher prices, but since Amazon’s author royalty drops by 50% when you price above $9.99, it didn’t seem worth it to charge $25. So… enjoy it at the low price. If you have the paperback, hey, buy the Kindle version as well and keep it on your iPad so you don’t have to tote the book around.
On the Amazon site, the paper and Kindle editions are not linked. This is supposed to happen in around 2 weeks automatically. We’ll see… Here’s the link to the book in the Kindle store.

Worth it to me, already pulled-the-trigger. Thanks for putting it on Kindle.
Thanks Bruce, since I gave my copy to a colleague a while back I have been thinking of getting another, this made it very easy! Cheers
Hi Bruce, thanks for a great book and even more thanks for putting it on Kindle . I’m in the midst of reading it and as far as my spare reading time is concerned, it is only challenged by The Second Coming (Gods back, look busy). Heard about it when you talked in this Bonita Webinar and I’m still glad I listened. Best regards from Germany. Cheers!
A fantastic addition to my Kindle – just downloaded it. There is a limit to how many (physical) technical books I can carry around, so Kindle (or other ebook format) is a vital addition – thank you very much.
I note your comment about a keen eye is required for the diagrams, but potential readers should note that they are readable and if in doubt, download the sample chapter first.
p.s. A bargain in the UK at £6.50 (GDP) on Amazon.
I just bought your book but was wondering if it was available in either PDF or ebook format as I don’t always have the book with me. I use the Nook tablet and understand you can’t support everything but thought I’d ask if there was any other means of getting it onto an electronic device.
Only Kindle. Sorry.
THANK YOU! That has to be the best news I’ve read for a while. Being in Europe this is just the easiest way to get English books and of course also the easiest to carry around. Since I use ITP Process Modeler and was trained using your method, this is the best reference book for me, so the download at $10.79 (International rate) has just made me really happy! I will spread the word here…
Hi Bruce, could you please make available the kindle book also in Germany ? Best regards Rainer
Amazon controls this. I believe it is supposed to be available in all Amazon locations.
