the iceberg book (early release 2)

You MIGHT have noticed the subtle use of “the” in this posts’ title instead of “my” from the earlier my iceberg book (early release 1) blog post. Either way, it is related to myself no longer working at Starburst as identified in chasing new cheese (my cheese moved). I’m proud of this ER2 version as well as the additional material I created for the ER3 & Final versions. I’m bummed my name has been pulled from the book as you can see on the O’Reilly book page, but c’est la vie (I guess).

I am happy to share the PDF for ER2 that still has my name on it.

The ER2 version available on the Starburst website is the same material, but with a new author’s name — I do like who they are putting on the cover as he has TONS of Iceberg credibility. This version only has 2 of the 4 chapters I wrote before leaving. There are 7 chapters in total, but the meat & potatoes are already done (by me). Despite my name no longer being on the book, I do hope that the vast majority of the content I wrote actually makes it into the final edition.
