With this book, you'll learn how to create code that's beautiful, safe, and simple to understand and test by using JavaScript's functional programming support. Author Michael Fogus shows you how to apply functional-style concepts with Underscore.js, a JavaScript library that facilitates functional programming techniques. Sample code is available on GitHub at https: \/\/github.com\/funjs\/book-source. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Fogus helps you think in a functional way to help you minimize complexity in the programs you build.
