Good starting point with Drupal 6, Jul 8 2009
I bought this book, along with 2 other Drupal books to get started with Drupal, as I felt that the rich online documentation was already too steep of a learning curve for me at this point.
This particular book, which I just finished reading, came a little bit late in my learning process, in that it's a bit basic. At least, it confirmed that I used best practices and made me correct a few mistakes.
The one thing I really hated about this book was that the author kept writing that the scope of the book was limited and that he couldn't tell us everything about everything. Having contributed a technical book myself in the past, I know how the business works, but the reader shoudn't feel that on about 10 times through the book. Also, the book is uneven in depth. I can feel that the author was a bit rushed to produce this book and didn't offer all the quality we deserve for a $50 book.
Bottom-line : skip this book and learn by experimenting and by reading the Drupal descriptions on the screen or on-line. I started reading Front-End Drupal by Käfer and Hogbin. So far, this one shows to be a lot better, but with a different objective. I'll review it when I'm done reading it.
