Replace your code with this:

            type : 'GET',
            url : ApplicationParameters.getWebRoot() + 'E_Books/pdf/previews/' + jsonRecord[0].previewUrl,
            data : strJsonParam,
            dataType : 'text',
            contentType : 'application/pdf',

            success: function(data){
            var opn = open("/E_Books/pdf/previews/"+jsonRecord[0].previewUrl, "_self");
                    displayBook(opn);
                    ebookStore.add(opn);
                    ebookStore.sync();
}
