Matt Harrison is the author of many of the most successful Python books, including Effective Pandas, Effective XGBoost, The Machine Learning Pocket Reference, and many more. I consider him the top author of Python books and content on the planet.

He stopped by my house to chat about self-publishing technical books, the pros and cons of using a publisher, book piracy, and much more. We both talk about our experiences as best-selling technical authors, and don't hold back in this wide ranging and very candid conversation. Enjoy!
