Packt is excited to announce details of RAW, its exclusive new book program that enables customers access to its books whilst they are being written. Launched today with Matt Butcher's Drupal 6 JavaScript and jQuery book, the RAW program promises to provide customers with downloadable chapters months before the full book is available to buy.
Read as we Write (RAW) books are the most immediate and cutting-edge way to buy a Packt book. Generally available 4-6 months before the book is published, buying a RAW book gives customers the opportunity to gain immediate access to content and share in the editorial process of producing a book. A RAW version of a Packt book is just that; an unedited and unpolished version of the final product. As soon as the author has written a new chapter, Packt will add it to the eBook and notify customers who can download it immediately. This nascent stage of production allows customers not just instant access, but also the opportunity to provide feedback and suggestions for future updates. A community will be born out of this early release with users given access to a group that offers them access to the author and other users. As soon as the book has been finished, RAW customers will be given access to the final edited and completed eBook. Drupal
6 JavaScript and jQuery book will be the first book made available through the RAW program and will be published in December. Written by experienced author Matt Butcher, the book will give users the keys to the toolbox, detailing how to use Drupal's JavaScript libraries to make modules and themes more dynamic, interactive and responsive, and add effects to make Drupal websites explode into life.
