"Space Settlements - A Design Study" -- free ebook from NASA
I love the fact that NASA gives away most of their stuff. They've made their 204-page book "Space Settlements - A Design Study" from 1976 available for free download.

The actual link to the ebook:

(Rename it after you download it.)
For those who, like myself, detest pdf format, the whole thing is available as webpages too:

It was the result of a 10-week program in engineering systems design held at Stanford University and the Ames Research Center of NASA during the summer of 1975. Among the many people involved was Gerard O'Neill -- a name many space enthusiasts will recognise.
