Book testimonials

Mastering Bitcoinย is the canonical reference that made Bitcoin and blockchain technology accessible to a broad audience, andย Mastering Ethereum does the same for the Ethereum world computer.ย 
โ€” Lane Rettig, Ethereum core developer

Mastering Ethereum is a fantastically thorough guide, from basics to state of the art practices in smart contract programming, by two of the most eloquent blockchain educators.
โ€”ย Manuel Araoz, CTO Zeppelin

Mastering Ethereum will become a must read in the future, as Ethereum is going to be as ubiquitous as TCP/IP. It will become a necessary layer under which decentralized, trustless technologies live and thrive.ย 
โ€” Hudson Jameson, Community Organizer – Ethereum Foundation

Mastering Ethereum is the perfect book for anyone who wants to learn more about Ethereum, whether you’re looking to test the waters or dive straight into the deep end. Between Gavin Wood’s technical knowledge of Ethereum’s inner workings and Andreas M. Antonopoulos’ ability to make complex subjects approachable, you get the best of both worlds with this book. I only wish it had been around when I first started diving into Ethereum.
โ€” Taylor Monahan, Founder & CEO of MyCrypto
