Applied functional Programming in Scala: Architecting composable systems with Scala higher order functions, algebraic data types, and advanced patterns (English Edition)

This book explores core functional principles like immutability, pure functions, and referential transparency. You will gain a deep understanding of the mathematical underpinnings through category theory concepts like Functors and Monads, and then apply these practically using Scala functional features and leading libraries such as Cats and ZIO. The book also covers handling effects and I/O, advanced functional patterns, and using specialized tools to build functional web, database, and streaming solutions. With real examples and patterns, it shows how these ideas can simplify code, improve testability, and increase system resilience.
