The Pragmatic Bookshelf is a content company dedicated to creating and distributing technical books and screencasts. The Pragmatic Bookshelf creates books, available both as ebooks and as printed books, as well as downloadable screencasts.
Prior to print publication, books go through a beta period where ebook purchasers can download versions of the book that may contain small errors. Once the authors believe all errors have been ironed out, the book leaves its beta period. Once a book leaves its beta period, the book is sent for print publication, and ebook purchasers will receive the finished ebook copy. http://pragprog.com/frequently-asked-questions/beta-books
