I'm not terribly familiar with Go, but surely the comparison here must be with Rusts Reference[0]? It is a bit shorter than the Rust Book (a simple print-to-pdf says 435 pages vs. 664 pages, and 104 pages for the Go spec).

- spoiler 4y agoI think the Go reference was designed with learning users in mind, whereas the Rust one isn't. That's where the book comes in; it's a more structured way to learn the language than just reading the reference. The reference can be supplementary, thought.
