    There aren't any, ibooks from Apple can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch, Apple have so far not made a Mac or PC reader for them. If you have it on your Mac then you should be able to sync it to the iBooks app on your iPhone via the iPhone 'device's Books tab
