Main Page - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks

What's a 'Wikibook'?

A Wikibook is a book that is put together through an open-source collaborative process, like the Wikipedia online encyclopedia. Open-source textbooks seem to have a lot of promise, especially in conjunction with the "$100 laptop" project designed to bring low-cost computers to poor and remote areas. A low-cost computer loaded as needed with open-source textbooks can be far cheaper than getting the paper books.
