Wow! A thesis means you're working on a Masters degree, right? Why would you want to cheat after all that time in school using the search inside function from Amazon.....why bow out now? Go and get the book and read it!!

Not only that, but anyone can use the 'look inside' function, and as anyone who's used it can readily testify, that glimpse inside is usually the index, two pages of text, and the back cover. Good luck trying to write a thesis on that...

You have to log in to browse or search inside a book. But, even if you want to read it by doing Look Inside function it is only limited to few pages, at most 10 pages or so. Images are mostly blocked. I truly doubt anyone can pull a thesis paper with such limited resources. It would be better to purchase the book in used condition.

It doesn't cost anything to get an account at Amazon, for that matter. There's no need to ask other people to do it for you.
