One can tell from introduction going forward the author did not in anyway rely much on readers feedback from previous edition thus you have the same introductory formula in writing style applied. The author assumes the readers somehow have an ideal setup like he does whereby when using vagrant you have ssh issues, does not indicate whether he uses global or local inventory file and thus you have to fill-in the gaps via google search. Literally the material is hard to digest thus a greater balance of understanding will depend on the user investing their time on official ansible docs. A half baked effort that is not engaging, could have been better.

I bought the book since this is fairly recent, ansible 2.9 is the current version. I first considered ansible up and running from O'Reilly Press but that book is a little bit aged and reviews said that it great but it should be updated to a new edition soon. This is why I landed on this book. Unfortunately, I feel I learned not a whole lot from this book. The Author is giving examples but is failing to explain these. Or I was unable to follow as good. Also, the author is half helping with the vagrant setup, It took me a couple of hours to have a working environment with vagrant since I had to research a whole bunch. I would have liked a better thought through examples. In fact, after this book, I have read the extract from ansible up and running which is containing the first two chapters. Which explained vagrant in a far better way and how I can get started.I am missing for whom this book is written because I feel the examples are really basic but the missing of explanations I would assume it's for more advanced users. I guess this book is missing some kind of clear concept. Sometimes the Author is touching onto topics that seem completely out of place at that moment.I recently purchased jeff Geerling's Ansible for DevOps ebook which is regularly updated so it is really current, and it fits me a lot more. Since the Author is really clear about what he is trying to achieve.Unfortunately, I missed the date to give the kindle version back of this book.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
