My bad for getting the title wrong. This one: https://www.amazon.com/Computer-Age-Statistical-Inference-Ma.... You can pick the student edition too if you’d like exercises.

#26Designing Data-Intensive Applications by Martin Kleppmann
I've seen the book is available on audible. Do you think it's possible to benefit from the audiobook?
i see quite a bit of overlap between the book and his lecture series on distributed systems https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEAMfLPZZhE&list=PLeKd45zvjc...
These lectures give a more theory based approach, while the book is more based on discussing practical systems; now both are covering distributed systems as such.
Now the distributed system audio course on youtube is extremely accessible (i listened to them while taking walks with our dog)
The book is also great, Kleppmann is writing in a very accessible style.

Likely not, it's a book that relies on the visual representations of how things are laid out a bit too often.
What that means in practical terms is that you'll be presented with diagrams and need to pause and think what they really mean.
This context will likely not be translated well in the audio form.

#28Haven't finished reading it yet, but it's been enlightening and thought-provoking: "The Essence of Software" by Daniel Jackson.

This and Database Internals. I'm more of a sales engineer that continues to flirt with moving to engineering full-time. These two books have really opened my eyes to both better system design and implementation details.
