A lot of these previews are on Bookshare. The last I heard, when we find one we should do a quality report so that they can be removed. As to why a publisher would do this, they are advertising and Bookshare is a venue to place advertising for free. For that matter, about the only real incentive these publishers have for contributing books to Bookshare in the first place is for public relations purposes. That can also be called advertising.

I wanted to read this book. An extended preview of 10 chapters was
added to the collection in February and I have been waiting for the
full book. I didn't want to just read 10 chapters. Why would the
publisher do that? Of course no one on this list knows. Sorry for the
rant.
