Subtitled "Rediscovering the Tools That Built the Future", this book serves as a bridge to understanding and revitalizing legacy code, with hands-on tutorials spanning languages from Forth and Simula to SNOBOL and m4. Dmitry Zinoviev ranges from the stack-oriented design of Forth to the early object-oriented experiences in Simula, and bridges the ever-widening chasm between contemporary code and legacy systems. He looks at topics such as how Simula led to C++, what made APL so powerful, and why we still use m4 even to this day.

This book shows how to turn React project requirements into tests and get fast feedback. Trevor Burnham looks at how to combine the power of testing, linting, and typechecking directly in coding environments to iterate on React components. He argues that React has opened the door to a new generation of web testing: clear, expressive, and lightning fast, making React a perfect fit for test-driven development (TDD).  This second edition has been extensively revised to reflect the latest tools and techniques for React development, including TypeScript.

Subtitled "The Old-New Role of a Human Programmer in the AI Era", this book looks at how to ensure skills remain indispensable in the age as AI. Artie Shevchenko, a former Google software engineer and lecturer at ITMO University, believes a better approach than becoming an AI expert may be to grow faster and deepen your expertise in managing code complexity. That's because complex reasoning is hard for AI, and in programming, the most intellectually challenging problem is keeping codebases reasonably simple.
