This is not meant as criticism of this book as it is of my own reading and comprehension abilities (English is not my mother tongue), but when I attempted to read the book, I found the writing style employed very off-putting and distracting. In contrast, I usually find documentation written in a formal technical style like standards and references to be clear and concise; I don't have to exert mental effort trying to decipher inconsequential verbiage, idioms, and cultural references beyond what I need to understand the material at hand. Is there a resource like The Rustonomicon, but written in a concise and formal style?
