As they've said before here, and as it says on the very page you reference:

	Copyright (c)2000, 1999 Massachusetts Institute of Technology
	This is a preliminary draft of the book. The final book will
	appear with MIT Press in 2001

That is, it's in the process of being published in book form, and the
publisher is willing for the page-by-page HTML version to be freely-
accessible on the Net, but the publisher doesn't want people downloading
"the whole thing" (except by special arrangement for instructional use,
in which case you could write them at <scheme@cs.rice.edu>).
