Hello,
Very rare event: the publication of a new book dedicated to the FORTH language and its applications with ESP32forth for ESP32 cards.
A book in several languages
It's a big challenge: producing the same book in several languages:
CN in Chinese
DE in German
EN in English
ES in Spanish
FR in French - language of the original book
PL in Polish
RU in Russian....
The price of the book
The book is free. I don't need money to live on it. I prefer it to be read by 1000 readers and if among these 1000 readers, I have two who actively participate in its evolution, I will have won my challenge.

More than 10 years ago, I started discussing with people here,
if it would not be nice, to have these PDFs as real books
to flick through or even make notes in them.
OK, everybody wants everything for free nowadays,
but I had a different opinion here.
After permission of people like
Chuck
FORTH INC
Dr. Ting
and others
I started the work to move these PDFs to published books on amazon.
It was a lot more work than I had expected, but worth my time as consultant.
And now there is the Forth Bookshelf as part of the books I was involved in:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Juergen-Pintaske/author/B00N8HVEZM?ref=ap_rdr&store_ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true
As you can see on the cover with Ting and the Forth Mug I had sent him.,
He was very happy with the result.
