Ingramcontent The Book of Satoshi: The Collected Writings of Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto

This is a very good book, if you are interested in Bitcoin and Satoshi Nakamoto. The writings from Satoshi Nakamoto shine spotlight on Satoshi's thinking. Many quotes are relevant today, almost prescient. I also recommend these other authors and their books Andreas Antonopoulos, Mastering Bitcoin Unlocking Digital Cryptocurrencies and BBCDSatoshi, Buy Bitcoin, You’ll Thank Yourself In The Future. In summary I recommend this book and adding it to your library of knowledge on the topic.

The book is too difficult to understand Bitcoin for a beginner. But if you have technical knowledge, it is really fascinating to see the discussions of Satoshi. It is quite impressive to see that Satoshi had an answer for almost everything. He got all planned.

I enjoyed this book. It’s basically an annotated collection of Satoshi’s writings. It’s humble and respectful of the body of work, and I highly recommend it!

Before reading this I thought it was either: a) a hagiography of Satoshi, b) a load of public domain content slapped in a hastily self-published book with the idea of making a quick buck, c) both. Of course it does mainly contain public domain writings about bitcoin but the author has added significant value by sorting through them and adding his own editorial comment and introductory paragraphs. I had a few minor quibbles with the intro but anyone reading this book wouldn't use it as an intro to bitcoin. It gives a fascintating and surprisingly readable background to the genesis of bitcoin, spread over 70 or so short chapters. For me the fact that things are discussed in a to and fro correspondence between Satoshi and others really helped to form a picture of the development of the system and gave enough time for things to sink in as I read. Buying this book was a highly price-sensitive decision for me, knowing that this is mostly free content, but I think the author priced the paperback at exactly the right level (~15 bucks in Dec '14), hence it's well worth five stars. Quality of print and layout is very good for a self-published book (I assume that's what it is anyway). What else would I have wanted? Larger glossary and more links to insightful papers about particular aspects raised in the book - there were some but I think the author might have gone a little further. Minor points though - great book that spans technology/culture/contemporary history.

Very fast!!!, item better than the image, hope to do business again in the future, highly recommended AAA++
