About the Reviewer

Giordano Scalzo has been a developer since the days of the ZX Spectrum.

He worked with C++, Java, .NET, Ruby, Python, and a ton of other languages he has forgotten the names of. After years of backend development and a hiatus from the technical side when he worked as a project manager, he is currently a freelancer in London where, through his company, Effective Code Ltd, he delivers code for iOS aiming at quality and reliability.

In his spare time, when he is not crafting retro game clones for iOS, he writes his thoughts on his blog at http://giordanoscalzo.com.

I'd like to thank my better half, Valentina, who lovingly supports me in everything I do—without you, none of this would have been possible.

I would also like to thank my children, Mattia and Luca, who are my future and have given me lots of smiles and hugs when I needed them.
