Lightning strikes twice. Dave Thomas once introduced us to Ruby with the Programming Ruby book. Now he's found a new programming language that fits the current computing landscape of today as well as Ruby did then. Dave's enthusiasm and humor come through and add to the fun of learning Elixir. It's a great language and this book is a great introduction to it. I recommend the book to all programmers. Even if you never find yourself using Elixir professionally, the concepts -- especially pattern matching and process concurrency, will broaden your sense of possibilities.
