We learn throughout these pages that writing is a sort of inverted strip-tease, in which the revealed charms are none other than the nostalgia, guilt and spitefulness that the author carries along. This is the unforgettable tale of how every true narrator mixes, in adequate doses, fiction, reality, autobiography, and auto-invention in order to achieve one of those mythical places in the collective imagination.

Advanced Apex Programming for Salesforce.com and Force.com
Dan Appleman - 2012
Intended for developers who are already familiar with the Apex language, and experienced Java and C# developers who are moving to Apex, this book starts where the Force.com documentation leaves off. Instead of trying to cover all of the features of the platform, Advanced Apex programming focuses entirely on the Apex language and core design patterns. You’ll learn how to truly think in Apex – to embrace limits and bulk patterns. You’ll see how to develop architectures for efficient and reliable trigger handling, and for asynchronous operations. You’ll discover that best practices differ radically depending on whether you are building software for a specific organization or for a managed package. And you’ll find approaches for incorporating testing and diagnostic code that can dramatically improve the reliability and deployment of Apex software, and reduce your lifecycle and support costs. Based on his experience both as a consultant and as architect of a major AppExchange package, Dan Appleman focuses on the real-world problems and issues that are faced by Apex developers every day, along with the obscure problems and surprises that can sneak up on you if you are unprepared.
