    The previous revision of this book was based on Pharo 1.4. This revision has been liberally updated to align with Pharo 5.0. Various aspects of Pharo are presented, starting with the basics then proceeding to intermediate topics. Advanced topics are presented in Deep into Pharo, a book on the internals of Pharo that is freely available at http://books.pharo.org. In addition for readers interested in web development, a new book Enterprise Pharo: a Web Perspective is freely available at http://books.pharo.org.

    This book will not teach you how to program. The reader should have some familiarity with programming languages. Some background with object-oriented programming would also be helpful.

    This book will introduce the Pharo programming environment, the language and the associated tools. You will be exposed to common idioms and practices, but the focus is on the technology, not on object-oriented design. Wherever possible, we will show you lots of examples.

    There are numerous other books on Smalltalk freely available on the web at http://stephane.ducasse.free.fr/FreeBooks.html.
