Quite good for starters and anyone who wants to relearn programming
It is a very good book for anyone who wants to start living the life of code.

An amazing book
An excellent book for beginners in programming, easy to read and understand. I would recommend this book if you are still undecided to pick a programming language, or you don't know what programming is. Loved the book will read it again to reinforce.

A waste of money
No insights, no apparent expertise on the part of the author. Pass.

it is a small thin book
I just got the book and was surprised to find that it is a small thin book, I don't think it is really worth the cost. I will have to be more careful next time.

Finding a programming language for former Basic/QuickBasic programmers.
As a former BASIC/QuickBasic programmer, I was looking to begin programming in a 64 bit language. From reading this book, it appears that Python is the language best suited to my needs.

Good read
Gave good insight to the different languages available. Programming is something I've been interested in and want to dive into. This helped me choose the language to try first.

This pamphlet basically tells you what the basic languages of computer programming are. It does not go into ant more detail than that. Furthermore the standard of english is very poor with grammatical errors, unfinished sentences as well as completely failing to fulfil the points made in the introduction. Worth every penny, Free.
