Can't wait for the next Head First book to hit the shelves? Want to get a jump start on the best new teaching methodology before it even goes to press? Here's the solution.

For the first time ever, we're making Head First books available on our Safari Rough Cuts program—starting with Head First Algebra and Head First Rails.

Many of you have asked us about the development process behind our Head First books. Rough Cuts will give you a first-hand look at how the content in the chapters evolve, as well as an opportunity to start using the book earlier. Plus, you can provide feedback directly to the authors and editors—which means you can help shape the final printed book!

Both of these books are available now at O'Reilly.

If you order both the Rough Cuts version and the printed book, you save a bunch off purchasing them separately. And even if you don't need early access, you can pre-order the printed book now and get 35% off the cover price! Click on the books below for more information.
