1. Very good, but still room for improvement - Think the book is great overall, lots of good, clear and nice looking examples and pretty much always up to date! However I believe some of the harder concepts of the book (for example polymorphism or some of the concepts in the early projects) can be broken down to even more basic concepts that in just one sentence explains what it does. Some self review-questions at the end of each chapter would be nice as well, just to be able to understand the concepts a bit further. Really looking forward towards more awesome works! This book has gotten me far and I would recommend it with ease!
