This somewhat new approach to publishing (although see two other examples below) is so the publishers can ‘know that the content will deliver what the market wants.’
Jurgen Wolff, from whom I picked up this information, thinks that people won’t contribute unless there’s some incentive – at the very least, an acknowledgement in the book (could be a very long acknowledgements section). I’m not so sure. Already people are offering information and seemingly, without desire of recompense. Have a look for yourself and see what you think.
Other people who are doing similar things are:
Future of the Book.org – although they seem to be more into discussion about whether the book has a future.
And
Greg Sandow is writing a book which has been critiqued chapter by chapter by readers of his blog.
