-== Preface
-
-This programming guide does three things. It
-
-* introduces the AspectJ language
-* defines each of AspectJ's constructs and their semantics, and
-* provides examples of their use.
-
-It includes appendices that give a reference to the syntax of AspectJ, a
-more formal description of AspectJ's semantics, and a description of
-notes about the AspectJ implementation.
-
-The first section, xref:gettingstarted.adoc[Getting Started with AspectJ], provides a gentle overview of
-writing AspectJ programs. It also shows how one can introduce AspectJ
-into an existing development effort in stages, reducing the associated
-risk. You should read this section if this is your first exposure to
-AspectJ and you want to get a sense of what AspectJ is all about.
-
-The second section, xref:language.adoc[The AspectJ Language], covers the features of the
-language in more detail, using code snippets as examples. All the basics
-of the language is covered, and after reading this section, you should
-be able to use the language correctly.
-
-The next section, xref:examples.adoc[Examples], comprises a set of complete
-programs that not only show the features being used, but also try to
-illustrate recommended practice. You should read this section after you
-are familiar with the elements of AspectJ.
-
-Finally, there are two short chapters, one on xref:idioms.adoc[Idioms] and one
-on xref:pitfalls.adoc[Pitfalls].
-
-The back matter contains several appendices that cover an
-xref:quickreference.adoc[AspectJ Quick Reference], a more in depth coverage of
-its xref:semantics.adoc[Language Semantics], and a description of the latitude enjoyed by
-its xref:implementation.adoc[Implementation Notes].
