Being a book on patterns and idioms, it would be really gratifying to know if any interested reader would benefit from understanding the underpinnings of these keys concepts as they are realized in the host language (JS in this case) directly or via libraries.

The two key design patterns based on which Rx works are the observer and iterator patterns. Let's have a quick look at how these patterns are implemented, and then speculate or peek at a possible implementation of RxJS. This way of learning would really help in forming a deeper understanding of the core concepts. And not to hide the fact that ...
