First, itknowledge.com is not free. You need to register, and to pay a
annual fee to be able to read books online. Usually, the first chapter
is free, but not the rest. And even if you are a registered member,
you cannot download whole books  with the usual site grabber tools -
they use some clever code to prevent exactly this. 

I don't think (and I dont hope) that you can find recent books for
free.

No, I won't. This is a public forum, and newsservers tend to
synchronize when they come up again.
