The eBook viewer below is easy to use.  It is currently showing the eBook in "Slide Mode".  To turn pages, move the cursor to the edge of the page and the cursor will turn from an arrow into a hand.  Click the hand and the next page will display.

To view the eBook in other modes select the mode from the "View Mode drop-down box at the lower left of the screen and select either "Book Mode" or "List Mode".  The first works like the "Slide Mode" to move through pages.
