I had the privilege of receiving a prerelease copy of the 3rd edition of Kubernetes - An Enterprise Guide, and I was thoroughly impressed by its comprehensive and detailed treatment of key Kubernetes topics. The authors' recommendation to use Kubernetes in Docker (KinD) for local testing of Kubernetes resources was particularly insightful and practical. This book has already provided immense value, and I anticipate it will serve as an indispensable reference as I step into a new infrastructure-focused role.
