Summary

This book delves into functional programming and composition techniques in JavaScript, starting with core concepts like pure functions, shared state avoidance, and higher-order functions to build modular, maintainable code. Early chapters explore the fundamentals of functional programming, immutability, and its growing influence in the JavaScript community. You'll learn essential topics such as function composition, currying, and higher-order functions, as well as advanced concepts like abstract data types, functors, and monads. The book discusses the evolution of functional programming, its role in modern software development, and addresses challenges like the software crisis and composing with classes. You'll learn essential topics like object-oriented programming, focusing on factory functions, functional mixins, and object composition. You'll also understand why traditional classes complicate composition and discover strategies for creating custom data types, lenses, and transducers. The book also covers best practices, emphasizing clean, reusable code and avoiding anti-patterns like excessive mocking. By the end, you'll be ready to apply functional programming techniques to tackle complex design challenges and write more maintainable JavaScript code.

    Lindley's groundbreaking book tells the true story of mis- and dis-information, why we've fallen so hard for them both, and how every one of us can fight back. 
    We’re living through the post-truth years, where it can feel almost impossible to separate fact from fiction in the information that we’re fed. But is it possible to escape the opinions created by false information and fake news, spread by our closest loved ones, friends, right up to world leaders? 
    Yes. There is hope. 
    The second edition of The Future of Truth (and How to Get There) unmasks the tell-tale signs that manipulation leaves behind – even in a post-truth world. We build up an essential toolkit to stop, step back from and sidestep misinformation and disinformation wherever our timelines take us. Through neuroscience, conspiracy beliefs, journalism, politics and AI, we’ll take a journey to alt-reality and back to build a happier, healthier future of truth.
