> With most books, which are responsible for introducing someone to a new language/framework, I expect the resource to really sell the language/framework in the beginning, and ease into the more gritty details. However, this book tried to do this at some points of the book, but lacked order. Perhaps the problem is with the book's many different authors, i.e. Dierk Koenig, Andrew Glover, Paul King and Guillaume Laforge. Maybe they wrote it in an uncoordinated fashion. This book is now 6 years old. A 2nd edition has been in the works for years now, but hasn't yet arrived.
