Pretty well laid out and informative, while being short. Good reference book and easy to find the section that you need.

This is the perfect technical book: short chapters with problem/solution paragraphs that goes straight to the point. You'll read it fast and it will be an effective learning. Not the kind of 500 pages expert book, you have all what you need to start to work straight away.

Sẽ hay hơn nếu các use case được gán nhãn hoặc phân section nginx plus or nginx (normal)

It would be better if each use case has label or tag to describe nginx plus or nginx (and some other fields)

This books gives an overall view of the things you can achieve with nginx with examples of each of those things.
I found it quite useful to get a better understanding of nginx.

Коротенькая книга для тех, кто любит бумажные книги - вместо чтения офф. документации, можно прочитать книгу и найти парочку новых идей.

Отдельного упоминания стоит русское издание от ДМК - переводили в гугл.транслейте 100%. Читать невозможно. Вероятно, сам автор оригинала наливал много воды в текст, а вода + гугл.транслейт = жесть. Спасает, что все достаточно очевидно и можно "понять что имел в виду автор".
