Hi Derek & Bill,

thanks for creating this book, I very much enjoyed reviewing it and I am not alone with this feeling if twitter is any guide. It is great to see high quality books appearing around Akka, especially if they are so much more engaging than the reference docs :-)

Regards,

Roland

Hi All,

I wanted to let you know that Derek Wyatt's Akka Concurrency book is now finished, printed, in-stock, and ready to ship. 
I think Derek has done a great job of explaining how to think about programming with actors and futures (and more) using Akka, and
has done it in a refreshingly entertaining style. This books is not only full of insight that will help people
be effective with Akka, it's also just plain fun to read.

You can check out the table of contents, read a sample chapter, and get your own copy (in paper or electrons) here:


Thanks.

Bill

It's amazing so far. But it's a shame that the illustrations are not colored in the printed form ;-)

BTW: Which program did Derek use? I know that he might be reading this thread ;-)
