Free high school science texts
- Free high school science texts
The FHSST non-profit organisation is an open-content project, established by Mark Horner, to create open-content science textbooks for high schools in South Africa which follow the school syllabus. Textbooks published under the GNU Free Documentation License could be made available for the cost of printing them on paper (or distributed in electronic format) - and thus go some way to furthering education in South African for all.
There are similar projects in the California Open Source Textbook Project, the OpenTextBook Project and WikiBooks.

Versions of the textbooks, which are always under further enhancement, are available for physics, chemistry, mathematics and biology.
