It's been out for nearly a decade and I still haven't bought it! I need to get with the program!

It really is an amazing idea!  By writing a book and then releasing it ten years ago, he'll inspire Walter to write an implementation of the language, changing the past and making D1 come out years sooner.

Or maybe this book is what inspired Walter in the first place, and Andrei just has to write the book to complete the time loop.

With a release date of a year away, I'm guessing he'll be putting forward the new things in D 2.0?

These two books will be really good for D.
Now the D-volution begins. (That still makes sense, you're remaking C++
properly)
