Just started into this book, as a seasoned developer in other languages, and so opened up my WebStorm evaluation editor and started coding in Chapter 1, the example in the book. I had an issue getting it going, and admittedly am a bit light in my Javascript method inheritence, so when I got an error running the node program, and being unsure of myself, I was stuck.
It was very refreshing to look in the front of the book, find the information about the Google blog for the book and be able to post a message to ask for help. What really was impressive, is to have the author Alex get back to me within a few hours. Wow!
(The problem was "my bad", and was an obvious omission/mistake on my part in entering the code), the code printed in the book was correct.
Fixed it, and the example worked like a charm. Chapter 1, behind me I am
looking forward to working my way through the rest of the text, and learned a lot (like about streams in NodeJS) just by typing int the first example.
This is not a beginner's book, but for me, this is a great way to get your hands on the code, quickly and I learn best by keying in code and gaining confidence and stepping through code (versus just reading). Thanks Alex!

Really good book
Reviewed in Germany on March 12, 2016
The book is quite new, 2015. The book goes deep into the Node.js understanding, no stop on useless and bored node installations and dummy apps like in other books. It's required some previous Javascript background before read this book. Touch slightly topics like Express at the end of the book. If you are willing whether for a certification or just to become a pro in Node.js, this is the best selection. In the book doesn't have any reference to newer versions or ES6 syntax and Node 5.x.
