We're extremely pleased to be able to announce the imminent release of the beta book of Pragmatic Ajax: A Web 2.0 Primer. Working with Ben Galbraith and Dion Almaer of Ajaxian.com, and of course Dave and Andy at Pragmatic Programmer, the book will be released as a beta within the next two weeks. Beta books at PragProg mean that you can buy the book now and read the chapters in PDF format. When the paper book finishes printing, it will arrive on your doorstep in the first wave. Plus, your feedback will help shape the book for final publishing.

As soon as we have a link to the official site for the book, we'll publish it here. Until then, I'll be heads down wrapping up the first beta.
