6 hours ago

Book titled 'The Practice of Programming' by Brian W. Kernighan and Rob Pike.
Published by Addison-Wesley in 1999, with ISBN 0-201-61586-X, 267 pages, and priced at $24.95.
Translated into multiple languages including Chinese, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, and Russian.

The author and Jon have completed a new book.
It is a visual beginners guide to Swift programming, focusing on Swift Playgrounds.
The book is available from book shops and O'Reilly's Online Learning platform.

This book teaches the Odin programming language, covering both basic and advanced concepts like procedures, manual memory management, parametric polymorphism, and data-oriented design.
The target audience includes programmers with some experience, offering a great introduction to low-level programming through Odin's simple yet powerful design.
The book emphasizes understanding why Odin works as it does, helping readers become better craftspersons by mastering their tools.

The Secret Life of Circuits is a new book by the author, published with No Starch Press, offering an accessible and in-depth guide to how circuits work.
The book stands out by providing intuitive models for circuit formulas, nearly 300 full-color illustrations showing real behavior, and a focus on modern problem-solving.
It is available for pre-order with a 25% discount and early PDF access from the publisher; hardcover copies ship in September.

A scholarly imprint produces first English translations of historical Hebrew and Latin works in astronomy, cosmology, and natural philosophy, many never before available in English.
The texts span centuries and include Gersonides' 136-chapter mathematical astronomy, which survives only in manuscript and was never printed.
These works cite and respond to each other, addressing the same cosmological questions, but until now could not be read side by side in a single language.
