eBook FAQ
What does the "real-time" concept behind this book mean?
"Real-time publishing" is the concept of posting a book as chapters/volumes are written rather than waiting until the publication is completed and printed. There are many benefits to this approach, especially for the IT industry. Information changes so quickly in the IT world that printed materials are often outdated or need supplements by the time they hit the street. The "real-time" concept allows administrators to receive information as it is written, so that it is relevant to today's environments.
How do I access the chapters/volumes?
You will be able to read the chapters/volumes in two formats. Each chapter will be available as an HTML file so that you can read it online, and as an Acrobat PDF file so that you can download and print it.
The first time you select a chapter to read or download, you will be prompted to complete a registration form. Once you complete the registration, you will be sent an email with your login information for reading the eBook. You must have cookies enabled to properly complete the registration process and to login and read the book.
What if I have trouble accessing the chapters/volumes?
As with any registration process, there is a chance that certain users, based on demographics, connection types, browser versions, and security policies, won't be able to access this eBook. If you are having problems, email ebook@company.com, and we will assist you in accessing the chapters/volumes.
How will I know when a new chapter is posted?
All registered users of the book will be notified via email when new chapters/volumes are added or modifications are made to existing content.
What if I have feedback or suggestions?
