There a links to Amazon in the official documentation.
(In Python 3.4 in the tkinter.html and othergui.html)

It's not right to advertise for a certain business.
When will the official documentation guide people to eat at MacDonalds ?
I is a sign of a low moral.

A more honest alternative is just to call the book title and author
and let people decide where they buy books.

If the mentioned books have official Web sites we could use a link to them.
Feel free to submit a patch.
