An Excellent Book on PHP 5,
By
This review is from: PHP 5 Advanced: Visual QuickPro Guide (Paperback)
In this PHP 5 Advanced book, Larry points out new PHP features through good examples. He touches many advanced topics and grabs readers full attention on every single one. Book's content recognizes questions coming from Larry's readers on the forums he personally finds time to administer and addresses them in appropriate chapters throughout the book. Available mentioned forums and other features of his web site such as code downloads and newsletters for example supporting this and all other Larry's books ensure his readers are satisfied and updated. One has to appreciate this dedication to readers. One segment comprised of three book chapters that is absolutely critical in making the whole book excellent buying choice is on Object Oriented Programming with PHP 5. These chapters are well placed amongst other chapters using Object Oriented Programming examples. Some of these examples such as creating a shopping cart are even compared with structural programming examples in this same book one can find very helpful in learning process. Larry did another great job keeping his writing level clear and concise efficiently extending someone's PHP skills.

Another excellent book by Larry Ullman,
By Curtis Garrison "- Curtis" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: PHP 5 Advanced: Visual QuickPro Guide (Paperback)
I've been reading Larry's books since back in the early days when php/mysql books were barely found. I have to credit Larry's books with helping me just get started learning about php & mysql, and even helping me with most of what I learn today. I've purchased every new version of his books and pick up new things every time. It's so easy to step along with the examples, to help provide a solid understanding, and to give a fresh reassurance of what I may have already known... plus I always learn new tricks and techniques. I guess that's why I keep getting his books. This book especially helped me with a few tricks just at the right time, right when I needed help with them. I have over twenty-five php books and his are all in the top of my favorites and most referenced to.

Solid,
By Callum D - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: PHP 5 Advanced: Visual QuickPro Guide (Paperback)
While not quite as good as its predecessor (PHP and MySQL for Dynamic Websites 2nd edition) in terms of readability and ease of understanding, Larry Ullman is still, with this book, miles in front of pretty much any other technical author I have read. The chapters on object oriented programming are certainly the best I have come across on the subject.There is also a quick but useful demo of how to put a bit of AJAX in to a PHP site to increase usability. The one thing missing from this book that I personally would like to have seen, would be an introduction to frameworks. But let me stress this point: Larry Ullman is the best technical author, by a long, long way, on any subject I have ever read about in my life. I just wish he was an expert and wrote books on all the other things I want to learn about - that's how good his teaching ability is. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful

Advanced but not unlearnable,
By E. Blood - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: PHP 5 Advanced: Visual QuickPro Guide (Paperback)
This book is a great continuation of the PHP5 Visual Quickstart Guide by the same company "Peachpit press). They stay with the same learning style that they have in the other books (visual and doing) but go into more advanced operations.
