This is a book about event based programming. There are dozens of computer science books that have 'event' or 'event based' in their titles. Almost all of these are about some particular language or system that uses events. This book is different. Our goal is to introduce you to event based programming - and, more generally, event based systems - as a computer science paradigm
that focuses on the fundamental ideas relating to understanding, designing, implementing, and testing loosely coupled systems.
