New book on Probabilistic Programming

This crossed my inbox recently:

The e-book is available now from https://www.manning.com/books/practical-probabilistic-programming. The print version will be available on Friday.

>From the cover:

Practical Probabilistic Programming introduces the working programmer to probabilistic programming. In it, you’ll learn how to use the PP paradigm to model application domains and then express those probabilistic models in code. Although PP can seem abstract, in this book you’ll immediately work on practical examples, like using the Figaro language to build a spam filter and applying Bayesian and Markov networks, to diagnose computer system data problems and recover digital images.
