Is there a way to remove something from my purchases? I downloaded a free textbook to see what they were like, and have since deleted it.

But the thing is, everytime I check for available downloads, it redownloads it.

So how can I remove it from my purchases, or somehow make it not download ever again?
 
Delete it from your iTunes app list on your computer.

Or, if you think you might want to re-install it again sometime but don't want it on your iPhone now, make sure that specific app is UNchecked in the list of apps in iTunes. This doesn't always keep it off your iPhone, but works part of the time. You need to double check your apps list before every sync to be sure only those you want will be updated.
