------------------------------------------------------------
A new book, "Programming in Go" (Addison-Wesley Professional;
ISBN-13: 978-0321774637) is now available.
Go is a new programming language primarily from Google developers
designed to be the 21st Century's C.
Go takes an unusual and very pragmatic approach to object orientation,
avoiding inheritance and instead relying on interfaces and duck typing.
Go also provides high level facilities for concurrent programming using
communicating sequential processes.
Go has high level data structures built-in (e.g., maps and slices) and
good Unicode support.
The book is aimed at programmers who would like to learn and use this
new language. (The book is not suitable for non-programmers.)
The book's web page is: http://www.qtrac.eu/gobook.html
The web page has the table of contents, links to download the complete
(Apache 2-licensed) source code for the examples and exercise solutions,
and a download link to the sample chapter (Chapter 1).
