Industry Reviews

"What can I say? This is a nutshell book, and thus the quality is excellent. Being a regular user of the 1st edition of Perl in a Nutshell (does that say more about the book or my perl programming I wonder ...) I fully expected this to be as good if not better. I was not disappointed. " Northampton Linux User group
