Reader Reviews:
Only just got this book (1/1 people found this helpful)
I only got the book today and I have only really flicked through it.
The first chapter is fantastic and I am so pleased to see someone using syntax diagrams - which start to appear in the 2nd chapter and which are used in appendices.
It talks a little about JSON and moves pretty quickly on to how to use JSON securely.
Including the index it's a 155 pages of highly readable information. A good size for curling up with or reading on a long train journey.
It hasn't been padded out with an extra 150 pages of anecdotes, author humour or inane examples.
This book requires you engage and use your brain, rather than requiring you to switch your brain off under the onslaught of author inanities that too many books of this genre suffer from.
