As a book author myself I can only say that the least you can do to respect an author's work is to buy a copy. If you can't afford one, borrow one from a library.
Please start with the wiki and all the information online and use this group to ask the questions you have. There are a lot of helpful people on the list and you wouldn't be disappointed.
