Ship faster code without rewriting from scratch. Many developers hesitate to adopt Rust because of the perceived learning curve or fear of breaking trusted code. What if you could modernize performance-critical parts of your application without overhauling everything at once? By making small, targeted improvements, you can experience Rust’s speed, safety, and reliability right away, while keeping your existing systems stable and secure.
- Incremental refactoring: Modernize critical paths while keeping trusted code stable.
- Cross-language libraries: Call Rust from Python, JavaScript, or C for immediate speed gains.
- Ownership and borrowing guidance: Eliminate data races, improve memory safety, sleep better at night.
- Async and concurrency patterns: Process events at scale with predictable resource usage.
- Error handling with enums: Replace cryptic crashes with clear, composable error flows.
Refactoring to Rust by experienced engineers Lily Mara and Joel Holmes delivers a practical, language-friendly roadmap for adding Rust libraries to existing applications. The soft-cover, 300-page guide balances clarity with depth, making advanced concepts approachable.
Through concise explanations, runnable examples, and side-by-side comparisons, the authors show exactly where Rust outshines scripting and systems languages. Each chapter targets a real refactor, from FizzBuzz pattern matching to blazing-fast HTTP services.
By the final page, readers can build production-ready Rust plugins that slash latency, cut memory waste, and future-proof critical features. The result is safer, faster software delivered with confidence.
Ideal for intermediate developers who crave performance without a risky rewrite, especially Python, JavaScript, and C maintainers.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to INDOO, Avenel, New Jersey, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
