From the Publisher
From the Preface
Who Should Read This Book
This book is targeted at developers who are looking to pick up a second (or fifth) language. The focus is on people who are new to Go. This ranges from those who don’t know anything about Go other than it has a cute mascot, to those who have already worked through a Go tutorial or even written some Go code. The focus for Learning Go isn’t just how to write programs in Go; it’s how to write Go idiomatically. More experienced Go developers can find advice on how to best use the newer features of the language. The most important thing is that the reader wants to learn how to write Go code that looks like Go.

O'Reilly never lets me down!
This is the best overview of Golang out there. If you want to learn the ins and outs of Go, and how to make sure your code is IDIOMATIC and understandable to other go devs, this is the book for you. The author walks you through various Go features and syntax, comparing it with similar features in other languages and noting the differences. He even explains how certain features work before telling you to never use them in your own code haha. It's really valuable to not only learn all the capabilities of the latest version of Go, but to also get direction by an experienced user on what should be preferred and what should be avoided. That's where this book shines. The latest edition adds exercises at the end of each chapter too, and that's so helpful for getting some of this stuff into your brain. Highly recommend this for any programmer who wants to dip their toes in the world of Gophers, and enjoys learning things in depth from a textbook.
