+About
+=====
+
+`Nikhil Marathe <https://nikhilism.com>`_ started writing this book one
+afternoon (June 16, 2012) when he didn't feel like programming. He had recently
+been stung by the lack of good documentation on libuv while working on
+`node-taglib <https://github.com/nikhilm/node-taglib>`_. Although reference
+documentation was present, there were no comprehensive tutorials. This book is
+the output of that need and tries to be accurate. That said, the book may have
+mistakes. Pull requests are encouraged.
+
+Nikhil is indebted to Marc Lehmann's comprehensive `man page
+<http://pod.tst.eu/http://cvs.schmorp.de/libev/ev.pod>`_ about libev which
+describes much of the semantics of the two libraries.
+
+This book was made using `Sphinx <https://www.sphinx-doc.org>`_ and `vim
+<https://www.vim.org>`_.
+
+.. note::
+    In 2017 the libuv project incorporated the Nikhil's work into the official
+    documentation and it's maintained there henceforth.
