Be Holding is a love song to legendary basketball player Julius Erving--known as Dr. J--who dominated courts in the 1970s and '80s as a small forward for the Philadelphia '76ers. But this book-length poem is more than just an ode to a magnificent athlete. Through a kind of lyric research, or lyric meditation, Ross Gay connects Dr. J's famously impossible move from the 1980 NBA Finals against the Los Angeles Lakers to pick-up basketball and the flying Igbo and the Middle Passage, to photography and surveillance and state violence, to music and personal histories of flight and familial love. Be Holding wonders how the imagination, or how our looking, might make us, or bring us, closer to each other. How our looking might make us reach for each other. And might make us be reaching for each other. And how that reaching might be something like joy.Binding Type: Paperback

Tough read for a newbie
Format: Paperback
To start off, I am not the world’s best at writing code. I do have a low level understanding of the concepts and can figure out (with a longer amount of time) how to get some of the code functional.
With this in mind, this book (if your a beginner or struggle with Python) is going to be a tough read and hard to practice. Its pseudocode is solid and makes the coding easier but you need to beware of pythons syntax differences between the different versions when you are using this. (This is something I struggle with).
I am beyond happy with this book, albeit there are typos and errors inside it but I think it’s solid for practice in this field.
Coming from a nontechnical profession, having the concepts explained and taken out from theory into working practice helps understand the practical side of doing something like this.
Despite being a tough read, i have the frame of mind that ethical hacking and program development is not for a total newbie and some experience is needed for maximum efficiency.
Hope this helps!
