I might go to Amazon or Google and search the name of tool, possibly with &amp;quot;book&amp;quot; appended.&lt;p&gt;If I want to learn how to do functional programming,  I&amp;#x27;ll search for &amp;quot;functional programming book&amp;quot; or something like that.&lt;p&gt;What&amp;#x27;s a search term that I&amp;#x27;d be likely to use that would lead me to your book?
