Reflexiones muy interesantes en torno a la meditación :-)

A book to put into its context, with some arguable reasonings (and anthropology theories), but highly interesting.

Not very sure what to say...

To be honest, in the "non-technical" chapters I found too many advices which were really creepy. I'm concerned that someone without too much experience just reads it and take it for granted. I also understand that, among other reasons, there must be cultural differences to explain them.

For algorithms and data structures: I found other resources (like an existing free Udacity course) much more pedagogical...

Frankly speaking: I wouldn't recommend as first reading for preparing for a technical interview with algorithms and data structures, but it would be interesting as an additional support.

I liked getting introduced into the Enneagram (I knew almost nothing about it).
Besides that, I can not say much more... :-)

It's amazing how most of the content of this 90 years old essay still applies nowadays.

After reading it, I can only keeping on admiring Bertrand Russell (who I'm pretty sure contained a Buddhist deep down :-) ).

As my rating says: I liked it (no more, no less) :-)

It has not become one of the main technical books that I would recommend to someone, and I don't feel that there are no "new ideas", but I found it useful as a reminder of many concepts.

It's easy and quick to read, and having examples of everything is great.

A little bit basic for anyone who had spent some time using Python and has worried about "doing things right"... but it's OK :-)

Very recommended for anyone starting with Python.

Again: this is the kind of book that, after having read it, you understand why it is considered "a must".

I can only recommend it. I have never worked with Ruby, but that's not a problem for getting all its value.

On the other hand, I'm really happy that I read it now and not 5 or 10 years ago: I wouldn't have the experience I have now and most of it would have stayed just as "theory" on my mind.

The book contains great advices, reflections and insights about OO and testing. Which doesn't mean that I agree with every perspective, but even the "disagreements" were useful for me.

Than you very much to [a:Sandi Metz|5763434|Sandi Metz|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] for writing it!
And for the rest of you, just... read it!!! ^___^

OK... so now I understand why this book became so popular :-)

It's that kind of book that I feel I should reread immediately after finishing it.
The part with the worked example is great, but personally I found specially interesting the chapters with insights about OOP design and sustainable TDD.

The ideal way to get all the value of this book is to write yourself the worked code as they are doing it. If you don't do it, at least take a look to the code here www.growing-object-oriented-software.com/

To be honest, I didn't grab everything they explain. And after finishing, the imposter syndrome is devastating me: I think I know nothing 0_o '

But it was definitely worthy and I'm sure it has helped me to become a better developer :-)
