An interesting resource!

I see that the book was released earlier this month. And the PR to add this to the extras is being made by the book author. I'd like to see some independent recommendations of the book before recommending it to learners.
(Note that the inclusion of the book in the 4 awesome lists all happened this week, similarly on the basis of a PR from the author. None of the PRs included a discussion about the book)

@tiagomonteiro0715 I would make two recommendations:

1. Join the OSSU discord and post about the book in the computer-science channel. Suggest a particular chapter that learners can read to get started.
2. Work towards inclusion of the book on goodreads.com This is the largest repository of book reviews I know of, and a valuable resource to individuals assessing the value of a book before reading it.
