Specifically, this book focuses on tidy evaluation (sometimes called tidy eval for short). Tidy evaluation is implemented in the rlang package [@rlang], and I'll use rlang extensively in these chapters. This will allow you to focus on the big ideas, without being distracted by the quirks of implementation that arise from R's history. After I introduce each big idea with rlang, I'll then circle back to talk about how those ideas are expressed in base R. This approach may seem backward to some, but it's like learning how to drive using an automatic transmission rather than a stick shift: it allows you to focus on the big picture before having to learn the details. This book focusses on the theoretical side of tidy evaluation, so you can fully understand how it works from the ground up. If you are looking for a more practical introduction, I recommend the tidy evaluation book at <https://tidyeval.tidyverse.org>[^tidyeval-wip].

I recommend the tidy evaluation book at https://tidyeval.tidyverse.org/.

The tidyeval book is superseded by more recent efforts at documenting tidy evaluation.
I think this should be reflected in the adv-r book here.
