Rust in Action introduces the Rust programming language by exploring numerous systems programming concepts and techniques. You'll be learning Rust by delving into how computers work under the hood. You'll find yourself playing with persistent storage, memory, networking and even tinkering with CPU instructions. The book takes you through using Rust to extend other applications and teaches you tricks to write blindingly fast code. You'll also discover parallel and concurrent programming. Filled to the brim with real-life use cases and scenarios, you'll go beyond the Rust syntax and see what Rust has to offer in real-world use cases. Richard Feldman, author of Elm in Action, goes over the benefits of this multi-paradigm, high-level, general-purpose language together with Tim McNamara, author of Rust in Action.

Software engineers are builders and problem solvers by definition. They leverage data and automation not only to solve work-related problems but also to make their life and the life of people around them simpler. Two software engineers that are passionate about what they do, Johan Abildskov and Felix Krause, examine the use and importance of transforming data pushes into data pulls and why dashboards and automation play a central place in the life of a software developer.

Widely considered one of the best practical guides to programming, Steve McConnell’s original “Code Complete” has been helping developers write better software for over three decades. The author’s timeless techniques and strategies are still relevant in spite of the evolution of programming languages or the shift from waterfall to agile. He revises the impact these changes have had on the software environment together with Jeffrey Van Gogh, Director of Software Engineering at Google. They don’t step away from covering some of the controversial subjects from the book and give relevant advice for programmers that are just entering this space.
