Re: Best book
Yes! The Eagle Book!!! Im afraid this is a "me too" email, but I am __compelled__ to write it. As a mostly self-educated programmer, I have devoured many technical books, but the Eagle book ranks as one of the best written techincal book I have ever read. Very coherent and builds up and sweeps its subject very nicely. There are many intelligent people who are masters of their subjects and have written books/tomes on their domain, but there is a big difference between understanding something well yourself and being able to explain it well to others. Lincoln and Doug, THANKS!!! The Eagle book is a major contribution to the mod_perl community and your hard work on it has not gone unnoticed. -mehryar And ofcourse Stas' ongoing contribution is without par.

I second that! It has been an invaluable source of information. And it is very readable as well. :-) -- Drew Taylor Vialogix Communications, Inc. 501 N.
