Sinopsis

The Ruby on Rails framework boosts productivity by leveraging the convention-over-configuration principle and model-view-controller (MVC) pattern, enabling developers to build features efficiently. This initial simplicity often leads to complexity, making a well-structured codebase difficult to maintain. Written by a seasoned software engineer and award-winning contributor to many other open-source projects, including Ruby on Rails and Ruby, this book will help you keep your code maintainable while working on a Rails app.You’ll get to grips with the framework’s capabilities and principles to harness the full potential of Rails, and tackle many common design problems by discovering useful patterns and abstraction layers. By implementing abstraction and dividing the application into manageable modules, you’ll be able to concentrate on specific parts of the app development without getting overwhelmed by the entire codebase. This also encourages code reuse, simplifying the process of adding new features and enhancing the application's capabilities. Additionally, you’ll explore further steps in scaling Rails codebase, such as service extractions.By the end of this book, you’ll become a code design specialist with a deep understanding of the Rails framework principles.

Dr Kirstey Holland O.M.D.

You know something’s not right in your body.

You’re exhausted, foggy, irritable, and maybe gaining weight despite doing “everything right.” Your doctor says your bloodwork looks normal. But you don’t feel normal. And worst of all? You’ve been told this is just “part of getting older.”

You are not broken.
You are not imagining this.
And you deserve better.

Dr Kirstey Holland has spent nearly three decades helping women just like you feel like themselves again. As a doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Functional and Environmental Medicine, and Nutritional Therapy, and trauma-informed coach, she created a unique, individualized healing protocol that works with your biochemistry—so you can finally stop feeling dismissed and start feeling empowered.

In this science-based, accessible guide, Dr Holland introduces the Hierarchy of Healing—a three-part framework that repairs your gut, rebalances your hormones, and ultimately helps you reclaim your vitality for good.

You’ll discover:

Why perimenopause is not yet menopause—and why treating it that way leads to misdiagnosis and mistreatment
The simple truth about progesterone—and why it may matter more than estrogen in this season of life
How to ask your doctor for the right tests (and why “normal range” doesn’t mean optimal)
The gut-hormone connection—and why healing starts by restoring your foundational health first.
The step-by-step process to restore metabolic flexibility, energy, sleep, and mood
Real-life case studies of women’s health journeys to show how healing is possible, even when you’ve been overlooked for years
The healing plan that actually works to finally feel vibrant, clear-headed, and like yourself again
