Both are industry experts, Alex Payne being the lead API programmer at Twitter, a social networking service based on Scala. O’Reilly, the publisher, writes: "Learn how to be more productive with Scala, a new multi-paradigm language for the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) that integrates features of both object-oriented and functional programming. With this book, you'll discover why Scala is ideal for highly scalable, component-based applications that support concurrency and distribution. You'll also learn how to leverage the wealth of Java class libraries to meet the practical needs of enterprise and Internet projects more easily."
Dean is a well-known member of the Scala community, using Scala recently for streaming data systems at Lightbend and now at Domino Data Lab. This edition covers the new features of Scala 3, with comparisons to Scala 2, both to explain why the changes were made and how they improve Scala, and also to enable developers using mixed Scala 2 and 3 code bases to work effectively. The book is aimed at professional programmers who want a comprehensive, in-depth, yet pragmatic tour of Scala and best practices for using it.
