The RSpec Book has entered the production process!
July 30th, 2010
I’m thrilled to announce that The RSpec Book has entered the production process!
For those of you unfamiliar with the publishing industry, as I was before this project, “has entered the production process” does not mean that it’s off to the printer. What it does mean is that it is currently being indexed so readers will be able to find the stuff they’re looking for. After indexing it will be copyedited (in which someone with better grammar and spelling than any of the authors possess makes the book more readable) and typeset, and then off to the printer.
If all goes to plan (yes, there actually is a plan!), books.should be_on_shelves in late September, early October.
That light at the end of the tunnel is, finally, not an oncoming train!

Is there an update on when the book will be available? I was just shopping on Amazon and it said we can’t get it yet.

Bound book date is Dec 2, after which it should be available on Amazon.

Hey Tony, if you want to get your teeth into the book right now (and you should because, if you’re anyway like me, it will help you up your game so much) you can buy the beta e-book on the Pragmatic Programmer’s website. Very highly recommended.
