<h1>Reviews</h1>
<p>
&ldquo;Alan Donovan and Brian Kernighan have written an even better book
[than K&amp;R’s <i>The C Programming Language</i>].&rdquo;<br/>
&ldquo;I enjoyed reading this book, which is not something I can say
about most technical books. ... If you have any interest in
learning Go, I strongly recommend that you own this book.&rdquo;<br/>

&ldquo;I like the examples in a book to be things I might want to do,
and this is an area where this particular book shines.&rdquo;<br/>
&ldquo;It’s an excellent book... If you’re a programmer and want to learn
Go, this would be my recommendation for the first book to get.&rdquo;<br/>

&ldquo;One of the strongest features of the book is its frequent
discussion of Go idioms and language design decisions. This
material is valuable even to someone who already knows Go, because
it is the only way ... to become
truly proficient in the language. The book is also very strong in
considering (almost) all features of the language precisely and in
detail. ... It is invaluable to have extensive discussion and examples of puzzling
features.&rdquo;<br/>
&ldquo;The examples are interesting and demonstrate the capabilities of both the language
and its libraries.&rdquo;<br/>

&ldquo;The Go Programming Language ... provides an excellent introduction to the Go language.
The book contains many good pieces of advice ...; there are
particular nuggets of wisdom scattered throughout. <br/>
