I read this book several years ago when I was still doing a lot of straight-ahead PHP. Was a bit of a mind opener at the time and totally changed my approach and understanding of programming and programming languages. Much of the book is applicable to Javascript, Ruby, and Python. I don't have much use for Perl now, but it's still a great read.

I also read it several years ago too and I frequently pick it up and re-read bits. It's changed my programming style for the better, not just Perl, but related languages. MJD, wherever you are, good work.
