（1）前言——（10）jquery项目的历史（History of the jQuery project）
This book covers the functionality and syntax of jQuery 1.6.x, the latest version at the time of writing. The premise behind the library—providing an easy way to find elements on a web page and manipulate them—has not changed over the course of its development, but some syntax details and features have. This brief overview of the project history describes the most significant changes from version to version, which may prove helpful to readers working with legacy versions of the library.
