Books

A book is a set of pages tied together in a hierarchical sequence, perhaps with chapters, sections, subsections, and so on.  The book content type should not be used as a discussion area.  It should be used for final product, one-way style communication of information such as manuals, resource guides, FAQs, etc.  If you need a discussion area, please use a wiki or discussion forum.

Users who have permission can create a book and write, review, modify, or rearrange the pages. Many users can work together on a book -- you can allow or disallow collaboration, to whatever extent you want.
