                book_name: 'Intro to html',
                author: 'X'
            },
            initialize: function () {
                this.bind("update:book_name", function (model) {
                    var bname = model.get("book_name");
                    var bauthor = model.get("author");
                });
            }
        });
        
        var final = new Books();
        document.write("Actual Value: ",
            final.get("book_name"));
        document.write("<br>");
