In this book, subtitled "A Hands-On Guide to Angular 2 and Angular 4", authors Brad Dayley, Brendan Dayley and Caleb Dayley begin with the basics of Angular and introduce its technologies and techniques, such as key features of TypeScript, newer ES6 syntax and concepts, and details about the tools needed to write professional Angular applications. 

They show how to build an Angular application from scratch while demonstrating the primary pieces of an Angular application and showing how they work together. Using lots of examples, the core parts of Angular are introduced, such as Components, the Router, and Services. The book also covers techniques like server-side rendering and how to incrementally add Angular 2+ features to existing AngularJS applications. Finally, the reader will gain insight into advanced skills that should be part of any professional Angular developer’s toolkit such as testing, tooling options, and performance tuning.
