Summary: Good Book!
Comment: I learnt Perl for the first time from this book. (Before this, I had no idea of Perl.) This is a great book and a gentle introduction to Perl. I completed this whole book (plus exercises) in about 5 days flat, reading about 6-7 hours/day (during the Spring break :-)

Anyway, certainly get this book if you are learning Perl for the first time. And, then if you need more Perl, you can move onto the Perl Cookbook or Programming Perl.

I deducted one star from the rating for the following reasons:

1. The book has more than a few typographical errors. However, these errors are mostly trivial and of non-conceptual nature, so if you are following closely, you will catch them.

2. Although this is a beginners book, some of the exercises are way too elementary. I skipped some of the beginning exercises because I knew instantly what to type.

The bottomline is that this is a great book for learning Perl. So, if you are beginner, go get it!

Summary: Great Fun to read
Comment: This book has been very helpful in learning Perl thus far, and the writing is a welcome change from most technical books. The authors mix in funny footnotes which make learning the most difficult pieces of perl a little easier with humor. Great buy definitely recommend it for people needing to learn Perl

Summary: first step with perl language
Comment: If you search the simplest way to learn PERL this is the guide that you need. You can find a simple explanation of code with examples and at the end of any chapters, a serie of exercises (with solutions) that help you to understand well how to apply what you have learn.

Summary: Learned Perl from this book
Comment: If you are to purchase a Perl book, and want to use Perl quickly, this is the resource for you. I still use the 2nd edition to do production code.

Should be on every Perl bookshelf.
