Short Cuts
Rough Cuts • Video • Articles
You asked for cutting edge tutorials on emerging technologies, and concise digital documents that show you new ways to solve daily problems. Our answer: Short Cuts.
The Short Cuts publishing medium accelerates access to new information. Short Cuts are exclusive short-topic works produced by our leading authors on technologies that are either too early in their life cycle or too specific to have entire books dedicated to the topic.
Short Cuts provide deep coverage of a specific topic, usually in fewer than 100 pages and are well suited for a more dynamic authoring model where the information can be extremely fresh and up-to-date. But like our books, Short Cuts are editorially vetted and held up to our publishers' high standards.
Short Cuts are another example of an important trend you're probably noticing here at Safari. We're continuously expanding the service beyond just books. Safari is committed to providing timely, appropriate content for you. We realize this kind of material often doesn't make it into a printed book as quickly as you need to learn about it – or even at all. That's why Safari is embracing formats like Short Cuts.
Access to Short Cuts is included at no additional cost for Safari Library subscribers. For Safari Bookshelf users, many Short Cuts take just half of a bookshelf slot. To see the lists of current Short Cuts available from our participating publishers, visit:
