Great web techniques. Exceptionally well-written book .

This book is a true eye-opener for any web programmer. Everybody has heard of, experiment with, and develop in Perl, Java, XML, Apache and Linux, but I haven't not seen any book that explains how to combine these "open source" technologies together in such an original way until I read this book! For example, the authors don't just show you how to program in Perl, but they actually teach you NEW cutting-edge techniques...

Best Book Ever

A well written look into possibly the most relevant technology of the minute. Drew and Chris capture an essence hereto untold about the world of Linux Web Programming. I laughed, I cried, but I saw the ending coming from a mile away.
