+
+### Who Is This Book For, and What Does It Cover?
+
+The main goal of this book is to provide a practical roadmap to continuous delivery for software development teams who have decided to use Docker containers to package their code and Kubernetes to run it.
+
+We don't spend much time explaining why you should, or should not use container technologies to ship your applications. We also can't provide a better general reference to using Docker and Kubernetes than their respective official documentation.
+
+We assume that you're fairly new to the container technology stack, and that your goal is to establish a standardized and fully automated build, test and release process.
+
+We believe that both technology leaders and individual contributors will benefit from reading this book.
+
+If you are a CTO or otherwise ultimately responsible for effectively delivering working software to customers, this book will provide you with a clear vision of what a reliable CI/CD pipeline to Kubernetes looks like, and what it takes to build one.
+
+If you are a developer or systems administrator, besides understanding the big picture, you will also find working code and configuration that you can reuse in your own projects.
+
+TODO: Summary of each chapter. One paragraph, or sentence, for each.
+
+Chapter 1, "Using Docker for Development and Continuous Delivery", outlines the key benefits of using Docker and provides a detailed roadmap to adopting it.
