That page seems sketchy. I wanted to see a bit more about the book. Does it teach programming or is it an ABC book? Also, I was suspicious of the Google shortened link for the Amazon link. I'm sure the author just wants some analytics, but it just felt off.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/1489... is what I was hoping was on the front page, a picture from inside the book, to help explain what the book is. From the "Look inside" link on Amazon, I feel like the author touches on concepts, but doesn't really explain them, but then goes into implementation details in various languages.

Do you avoid Google, Yahoo, Bing, Amazon, and Facebook, who also track outgoing links?
It's not about tracking outbound links, it's that I just associate "buy now!" and shortened urls to be a bit sketchy.
