I don't know what your ad income is -- and I'm not asking -- but just looking at the HowIDidIt page, this is a book that screams for you to redo it for the iPad in iBooks Author. It's exactly the kind of book that app was made for.

EDIT: And btw, eBooks are my thing, so you really should listen and do it. "The Classic Back in Print for the Tablet (or iPad) Age."

I think this is looking for an iPad app too. Each section could be a low cost in-app purchase. Add a preview for each section -- perhaps an article or two from each section, for free.
