Response: thx tired and Alexpal 4 the quickie alternative. workz good too to get 500x500 cover. if ur book has no cover with this route u might want to crop the white noise off the pic to fit on ur pdf.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/XXXX
where you replace XXXX with the ASIN (normally the ISBN-10 but always the stuff after the /dp/ in a typical amazon url).
In this case, the book's amazon webpage is http://www.amazon.com/Relax-into-Stretch-Flexibility-Mastering/dp/0938045288/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1250145695&sr=8-1 (and if you look at the page you'll see it lists the ISBN-10 as 0938045288) so just look up:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/0938045288
In any case these images are NOT the same thing (somewhat smaller) than what you can get via the Look Inside pages. In this example, the Look Inside jpeg is 600 x 812 (but with the annoying "Copyrighted Material" text), and the other version is only 500 x 500.
BTW if you have the ISBN-10 (or less likely the Amazon ASIN), you can just use:
http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/ISBN10 to get to the book's page.
In this case http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/0938045288 brings you to the same product page as before.

From FAQ:

---------
for obtaining quality covers of books use next link:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/XXX/ref=dp_image_0,
where XXX is ISBN-10 (without "-") of your book.

Also, if anyone want's to "trade pages" let me know. I'll get the ones you need and you'll get the one's I'm missing.
Not a rocket science, aight?
Alexpal, велосипед или нет, но все же хорошо когда конкретно указано, а то факью порой трудно воспринимается в полном объеме ;)
Да я только к тому, что уже 2 года как все описано. Причем вариант, указанный в ФАК, проще и требует намного меньше телодвижений. :)
Работает и для ASIN, и для ISBN. Просто копируешь полученную картинку и удаляешь левые-правые белые поля (в моем любимом HyperSnap, например, ctrl-t - и все дела).
Вообще, постящим много книг и дружащим с программированием, написать парсер для амазона по ISBN - это как два байта переслать. Там все универсально: картинки, выходные данные книги, ее описание. И по простому ISBN можете получать готовый оформленный пост
