From the Author:

I have been asked time and again how to get into the field。 If you sat me down for a couple hours, this is exactly what I would say。 I tried to make this book as concise as possible so that it's easy to consume。 Everyone's experience is different, so it's hard to put you in a mold, which is why I have the podcast to go along with it。 The Podcast is a free resource anyone in the world can use to learn from other's experiences。
