As a newbie Perl programmer, I found this book completely awesome - it revealed to me , for the first time, the enormous power contained within Perl. Ok, I dont understand much of the code yet, but if you are thinking of getting into Perl or if you simply dont know what Perl is really about, get this book and you'll be really inspired.


On the strength of this (my first) Perl
book, I bought "Perl in 24 hours", and i'm getting the Camel book as well, as I thought to myself "Now I MUST really get to grips with Perl!!"


You won't use this book initially whilst learning
perl, but you'll definitely turn to it once you feel competent enough that you want to try something more than what is contained in your usual introduction-to-perl style books.
