public JsonResult BooksByPublisherId(int id)
{
      IEnumerable modelList = new List();
      using (DAL.DevelopmentEntities context = new DAL.DevelopmentEntities())
      {
            var books = context.BOOKs.Where(x => x.PublisherId == id).ToList();
            modelList = books.Select(x =>
                        new BookModel()
                        {
                                   Title = x.Title,
                                   Author = x.Auther,
                                   Year = x.Year,
                                    Price = x.Price
                          });
            }
    return Json(modelList,JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

        }

javascript

$.ajax({

                cache: false,

                type: "GET",

                url: "@(Url.RouteUrl("BooksByPublisherId"))",

                data: { "id": id },

                success: function (data) {

                    var result = "";

                    booksDiv.html('');

                    $.each(data, function (id, book) {

                        result += 'Title : ' + book.Title + '
' +

                                    ' Author :' + book.Author + '
' +

                                     ' Year :' + book.Year + '
' +

                                      ' Price :' + book.Price + '
';

                    });

                    booksDiv.html(result);

                },

                error: function (xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {

                    alert('Failed to retrieve books.');

                }

            });
