When I cracked the book open, the first information I found was
immediately valuable to a project I was working on. I checked the table of
contents for some similar information, and found yet another article that
helped me out. Maybe "classic" is a more appropriate term than "dated."

I certainly agree that this is the best of TPJ. It's like the
Cookbook series, but so much more. Want to see just a little of what Perl
can do? This book will be a good read. It will be a companion for quite a
while before I finish it, and all the while I'll be looking for ways to
make my own work better.
