      For Swift fans, there is a parser combinators (with implementation) talk by Yasuhiro Inami:

      https://realm.io/news/tryswift-yasuhiro-inami-parser-combina...

      The last free episode of Swift Talks by objc.io was about parsing techniques (highly recommended as an introduction to parsing) and it had also a small section at the end covering parser combinators.

      https://talk.objc.io/episodes/S01E13-parsing-techniques

      There are at least two parser combinator implementations in Swift on Github (one is from the first talk above, the other from the objc.io book 'Functional Swift'):

      Interesting. Amazon is a bit unpredictable with pricing. The advantage of the digital edition is that you will get updates whenever we change something. We've done that for the past 1.5 years with the Functional Swift book =).
