Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: A reference book you will keep going back to - This is a very good detailed book. However, the topics are fairly complicated so it is not light reading. I would recommend this book as it is very in-depth. If you are looking for a more light hearted or simple book it may be best to start with Saifedean Ammous, The Bitcoin Standard, BBCDSatoshi, Buy Bitcoin You’ll Thank Yourself In The Future or Saifedean Ammous, The Bitcoin Standard. The author Jimmy Song is often seen on TV doing interviews which are well worth watching too. Overall, I recommend this book as it is very detailed and acts as a reference book to keep going back to. Review: Exceptional primer on becoming a Bitcoin developer - If you're interested in programming Bitcoin and you have some coding knowledge then this is the only book you'll need. It starts from the very beginning and assumes no knowledge. The mathematics are explained clearly in small bite sized chunks and built upon so you understand the why, not just the what. When you understand why things are the way the are then everything else clicks so much faster. The other stand out from the book is the use of Jupyter notebooks. I'd never used these before but it means you can focus on just the next element being explained and in a few lines find out whether you understand the concept being explained. I’ll find it hard to read a technical book again if it doesn’t have these. By the time you get to SegWit you’ll have a much greater appreciation of the elegance of Bitcoin and the fantastic work being done by the Bitcoin Core developers. I have 20 years development experience but I felt like I was back in school reading this book. In a good way. I found it challenging and at times frustrating but always enjoyable. This is the book I’ll be recommending to people when the ask about Bitcoin. What a great resource for the community!
