The Book of F#: Breaking Free with Managed Functional Programming Review: Clear, concise, well organized - As I write this review (March 2021) this book is six years old and it covers F# 3.1 while F# 5.0 is the current version. Picking up this book would, by some, be considered historical research. Still, even though I have newer books on F#, this is this book that I reach for for my day to day programming chores. It seems that 99% of what I need to know was in 3.1 and this book is much better at clearly describing things than the more recent books. Even the typography is better (why do recent books choose such a large font and layout code with so much spacing and wrapping that it is hard to read?). And at a svelte 282 pages it is a delightful example of "K&R" concision in a world of computer books that are priced by the pound (as in weight). I strongly encourage the author to produce a Second Edition if for no other reason than to get this book in front of more eyes when everyone using desertcart is sorting by Publication Date. Review: Good book for starting with F# - Good introduction to F# and gets you quickly started (with Visual Studio). Covers lots of concepts. However, it does leave you with some unanswered questions here and there. All in all a nice read for beginners. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,563,883 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #145 in Functional Software Programming #746 in Object-Oriented Design #1,303 in Microsoft Programming (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (34) | | Dimensions | 7.06 x 0.65 x 9.31 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 1593275528 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1593275525 | | Item Weight | 1.35 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 312 pages | | Publication date | March 1, 2014 | | Publisher | No Starch Press | ## Images ![The Book of F#: Breaking Free with Managed Functional Programming - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71LLGaj408L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clear, concise, well organized *by G***. on March 9, 2021* As I write this review (March 2021) this book is six years old and it covers F# 3.1 while F# 5.0 is the current version.

Covers lots of concepts. However, it does leave you with some unanswered questions here and there. All in all a nice read for beginners. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Okay. Not quite a reference, not quite an instructional book. A "tweener". *by A***Z on October 24, 2014* Disappointed... I found that this book wasn't in depth enough to be a reference but too short on whys and hows to be an instructional book. I suppose that if you've already read an F# reference or two and wanted to reinforce your knowledge then this book would be a good fit. For me, I was hoping for something that would help me "think functionally" and it didn't do that for me since it was more about language features than how best to use those features. That said it didn't explain the language features as clearly and precisely as I would have liked. Maybe this is just a case of unrealistic expectations on my part based on prior reviews. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/12783538-the-book-of-f-breaking-free-with-managed-functional-programming](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/12783538-the-book-of-f-breaking-free-with-managed-functional-programming) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
