Cant complain for free. But i skimmed the book (I work in a related area), personally wouldnt recommend this book as a starting point. It kind skims into various topics without really all the fundamentals, worse than your average ML course online, and is also way too shallow if you are trying to learn any deeper.
If you do want a pretty hardcore/thorough book, Elements of Statistical Learning (basically the bible) is always free! https://web.stanford.edu/~hastie/ElemStatLearn/
