5.0 out of 5 stars Perl power Dec 30 1999
By Dennis Krystowiak - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Excellent book that gets you started with lots of areas of perl. Most of the code I have tried works fine with Activestates's 523 build and with the perl development kit 1.2.4. Having code that work is rare with these books especially with Windows. I use 98 and NT and unix. This book is not a diffinitive guide to perl but it gives you a good summay in most of the important area's and enought code to get started quickly. It gave me lots of ideas on things I could use perl for. I also like "Perl 5 complete" for theory, but the code for that book is very buggy and hard to get to work. I like its detailed explanation of how things are suppose to work. "Perl Cookbook" is also excellent for how to solve problems various kinds of problems. These are the best of the perl books I have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, well-written with lots of valuable info. Oct 4 1999
By Michael E. Tacelosky - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Although my bookshelves are already full of 700-page perl books of the "Teach Yourself" variety, I was unable to find any good explanations of the LWP module. When I found a chapter devoted to LWP in Perl Power, I was thrilled and immediately bought the book.

What I didn't expect was the bonus of someone finally providing a good explanation of Perl 5 and object-oriented perl. That section ALSO would have been worth the price of the book.

Even the first chapter had all sorts of insights and explanations I found invaluable. I've been using perl off and on for about 3 years, mostly writing quick utilities, and I'll credit this book with wanting to make me use perl more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good introduction to Perl, and great reference Mar 9 2000
By C. Hulshof - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
From its corny title you might expect another one of those sleazy introductions to Perl (I can name a few), but I can happily say that this book is an exception. The overview of the language is excellent and very comprehensible. Even after reading Learning Perl and Programming Perl, I picked up some valuable tips. The chapters on Object Oriented Programming and Perl/Tk are also good. For the Perl/CGI part, you might consider reading additional material, however. All in all, a surprisingly good introduction and reference to Perl 5, both for the beginner and the more advanced programmer.
