Common Questions / FAQ
Does the print version of the book give access to the bonus materials included with the digital version? Yes, the paperback version includes links to the online resources. So you’ll get the same great experience that customers of the digital edition get, with interactive online quizzes, and download access to the exercise and code challenge solutions.
Amazon doesn’t ship to my address? You should be able to order the book from any local book store by giving them the ISBN code 1775093328. The book might take a little while to become available that way since we just published it, but it’s not limited to being sold only on Amazon. It’s just that Amazon is the largest distribution channel, so that’s what we’re focusing on for the launch right now.
