Xah Lee on Mickey Petersen's Mastering Emacs

• Mickey Petersen wrote a book Mastering Emacs.
• The few times i read his articles, honestly, it's incomprehensible to me.
• He usually write in certain technical precise or comprehensive style that i think some hacker types prefer.
• Of his writing style, am often thinking, why would i read it instead of elisp manual?
• In fact, i prefer elisp manual, finding it actually easier to understand and definitely comprehensive.

but, as hackers wont say, YMMV. (Your Mileage May Vary)

Here's a example of Mickey Petersen's tutorial, check it out:

• Mastering Key Bindings in Emacs

PS I find his book cover design extremely beautiful.
