Programación en GO cover
Cover of Programación en GO on the Open Library.

Personal review:

This book is a good introduction to Go, covering the main features of the language and its standard library. It is well structured and easy to follow, with clear explanations and examples. However, it does not go into much depth on any of the topics covered, so it may not be suitable for those who want to learn Go in detail. It is more recommended for those who want to have an overview of Go and its possibilities, but not for those who want to learn how to program in Go in a detailed way.
