Thanks!

Under what circumstances would you expect someone to discover your book (they can't buy it if they don't know about it).

If I want to learn a particular software tool (Kafka, Kubernetes, git). I might go to Amazon or Google and search the name of tool, possibly with "book" appended.

If I want to learn how to do functional programming, I'll search for "functional programming book" or something like that.

What's a search term that I'd be likely to use that would lead me to your book? Or is there one?

That's where my blog, https://vladmihalcea.com/blog/ or my StackOverflow answer, https://stackoverflow.com/users/1025118/vlad-mihalcea come into play.

Most of my readers get to know me from these resources prior to knowing about my book.
