The Wiki Way: Quick Collaboration on the Web is a 2001 book about wikis by Bo Leuf and Ward Cunningham.
It was the first major book published about using wikis. Cunningham invented wikis when he wrote WikiWikiWeb, the first wiki website software.
The book is about how to manage wiki systems, followed by a perspective on the nature of wiki-style online communication.

The review notes: The Wiki Way book is a manifesto and a software manual in one, with the essentials for Wiki installation attached on CD. The authors have written this book with an almost mystical sense of wonderment at the achievements and ideals embodied in the Wiki concept, a web site where anyone can edit anything. ... The attached CD allows you to install a Wiki on most Os's, even Windows, and then you too will be able to keep the flame burning for those early ideals of the WWW: empowerment, learning and collaboration.
