  I'm about halfway through the meat of it, it gives alot of good insights and Joe's writing style is very easy to read through

    Came across it from the reading list on the Alan Kay post. Good to hear its an easy read, might sit down and dive into it tonight.

  Is this better of an introduction to Erlang (and in general distributed fault tolerant systems) than other sources (e.g. programming Erlang)? I come from a telecom background and worked on high reliability/robust systems, somewhat on the principles of this book [1]. Wanting to learn Erlang.

    Am a noob in Erlang studies but i have settled on the following three books. 1) Introducing Erlang: Getting Started in Functional Programming. - Just to get an easy intro. 2) Programming Erlang: Software for a Concurrent World by Joe Armstrong himself. 3) Erlang and OTP in Action - This one seems to be the advanced book.

    What other books would you recommend to study about programming High Reliability/Robust/Fault-Tolerant systems?
