I have now found a method to download the Mathematica notebooks for this 
book (assuming that you have registered your purchase of this e-book):

1. Log into O'Reilly where this book is found.

    http://oreilly.com/catalog/9781449383244

    You need an account with O'Reilly (email address, password)

2. Then go to the following link:

    https://members.oreilly.com/account/emedia

3. There you should find "Download Mathematica"

     Click on this and the download of a zipped file containing the 
Mathematica notebooks should be initiated.
