Actually, my main recommendation is to try not to worry about it and love the GC! When it works, it really is pretty nice, and I find it works well enough in most places to be really useful.
But when it isn't right for you, then the other options come in and I showed some tricks to do it. Move semantics, for example, might not be obvious but is easy once you see the trick: disable the postblit and provide a release method. So that's the kind of stuff the chapter focuses on.

Just downloaded the eBook version. Printed version will soon follow, I suppose. It couldn't have arrived at a better time, because I'm re-organizing and revising my code at the moment.
