Summary
Functional Programming in Scala is a serious tutorial for programmers looking to learn FP and apply it to the everyday business of coding. The book guides readers from basic techniques to advanced topics in a logical, concise, and clear progression. In it, you'll find concrete examples and exercises that open up the world of functional programming.
Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.
About the Technology
Functional programming (FP) is a style of software development emphasizing functions that don't depend on program state. Functional code is easier to test and reuse, simpler to parallelize, and less prone to bugs than other code. Scala is an emerging JVM language that offers strong support for FP. Its familiar syntax and transparent interoperability with Java make Scala a great place to start learning FP.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren:
Paul Chiusano has been writing and shipping functional code in Scala since 2008 and is responsible for the introduction and growth of Scala usage at his company, Capital IQ. As part of this effort he co-designed a functional programming curriculum and taught an internal course for coworkers interested in learning FP. Paul is also a regular blogger and speaker on functional programming and Scala.
Rúnar Bjarnason is a self-taught programmer with 12 years of industry experience, with a focus on functional programming since 2008. Rúnar is a prolific blogger and occasional speaker on functional programming and the Scala programming language. He is a principal contributor to the Scalaz library for Scala and the Functional Java library for Java.
