About this listen

Mastering Ethereum: Building Smart Contracts and Dapps (Abridged Edition) by Andreas M. Antonopoulos and Gavin Wood, PhD.

Ethereum represents the gateway to a worldwide decentralized computing paradigm. This platform enables you to run decentralized applications (DApps) and smart contracts that have no central points of failure or control, integrate with a payment network, and operate on an open blockchain. With this practical guide, Andreas M. Antonopoulos and Gavin Wood provide everything you need to know about building smart contracts and DApps on Ethereum and other virtual-machine blockchains.

Discover why IBM, Microsoft, NASDAQ, and hundreds of other organizations are experimenting with Ethereum. This essential guide shows you how to develop the skills necessary to be an innovator in this growing and exciting new industry.

This essential guide shows you how to develop the skills necessary to be an innovator in this growing and exciting new industry:

  • Run an Ethereum client, create and transmit basic transactions, and program smart contracts
  • Learn the essentials of public key cryptography, hashes, and digital signatures
  • Understand how "wallets" hold digital keys that control funds and smart contracts
  • Interact with Ethereum clients programmatically using JavaScript libraries and Remote Procedure Call interfaces
  • Learn security best practices, design patterns, and anti-patterns with real-world examples
  • Create tokens that represent assets, shares, votes, or access control rights
  • Build decentralized applications using multiple peer-to-peer (P2P) components

Decent book, awful narration

The book is decent, though slightly outdated. The narration is so bad it is a distraction. All crypto native terms including “Ethereum” are mispronounced, and the pacing is terrible.

Great content terrible narrator

I didn't expect a lot from this narration, but it was by far the worst I've heard. I've not heard this many wrong pronunciations in a book and he even sounded like stifling a yawn at one point.

ultimately I bought this as a supplement the physical book and I got through it so I guess it still did the job.

Ok book, horrible narrator

Not a bad book, but narration is pretty awful and quite annoying. Probably better off with a print version.

Terrible speaker

Made many mistakes when speaking and you can tell he doesn’t know crypto jargon.

Very basic audiobook. Not for people who have been working with blockchain tech for more than 3mo

An insightful reading

I really like the fact that this book went more in-depth with the technical aspect of Ethereum, it definitely highlighted some topics I didn't know much about before. Of course, I feel like getting a physical hardcover copy would be smart so I could highlight and underscore all the parts that stood out to me. Regardless it's a book I would recommend to anyone interested in Ethereum.

Worst narration I have ever heard.

It was hard to get into this. The narrator obviously did not prepare for reading this material. Lots of mistakes and pronunciation errors. You can hear Paty shuffling. I think he narrates through some Yonns and coughs. Very disappointing considering the information he’s giving is something I would much like to digest.. I’m sure my review will have for medical errors as well but I am using Siri while driving and not getting paid to read a technical book.

Terrible narrator and very short

narrator fumbled tech terms regularly and speaking in general

book was abridged to the point of not being worth while. expected an in depth development book, but it barely scratched the surface

Worked for me as conceptual review.

Narrator's tone and cadence effective as background while I performed other tasks. Been down this rabbit hole for a minute...
