Better yet,  he writes amusingly and well--all of which comes across in this latest edition  of the definitive guide to the language.&lt;p&gt;  Like Topsy, Perl just grew, and as a result the need for a third edition came  about. It's now over 1,000 pages, which it needs to be, as it performs several  different duties. First, it's an introduction to the Perl language for those who  are new to programming; also, it's a guide for those who are coming from other  languages; and, finally, it's a Perl language reference. &lt;p&gt;  Among Larry Wall's other pursuits is being a linguist, and it's perhaps for this  reason that Perl is a peculiarly flexible language with many routes to achieving  the same ends, as the authors ably demonstrate. It's also extensible in several  ways, designed to work with many other languages. Also, as it's largely  interpreted, programs written in Perl tend to run unmodified on a variety of  platforms--although platform-specific Perl modules and programming practices are  also discussed.&lt;p&gt;  A major strength of &lt;I&gt;Programming Perl&lt;/I&gt; is the way subject areas are  approached from several directions. This constant shift of viewpoint eliminates  blind spots in the reader's understanding and provides a pleasing echo of the  way Perl itself can take many routes from here to there. &lt;p&gt;  Because the Perl community is both knowledgeable and active, the language covers  much more ground here than in the previous edition. Even if you have both  previous editions, you'll want this latest version--if only for the new jokes.  &lt;I&gt;--Steve Patient, amazon.co.uk&lt;/I&gt;</Content></EditorialReview><EditorialReview><Source>Book Description</Source><Content>Perl is a powerful programming language that  has grown in popularity since it first appeared in 1988. The first edition of this book, &lt;i&gt;Programming Perl,&lt;/i&gt; hit the shelves in 1990, and was quickly adopted as the  undisputed bible of the language. Since then, Perl  has grown with the times, and so has this book.    &lt;i&gt;Programming Perl&lt;/i&gt; is not just a book about Perl. It is  also a unique introduction to the language and its culture,  as one might expect only from its authors. Larry Wall is the inventor of Perl, and provides a unique perspective on  the evolution of Perl and its future direction. Tom Christiansen was one of the first champions of the language,  and lives and breathes the complexities of Perl internals  as few other mortals do. Jon Orwant is the editor of   &lt;i&gt;The Perl Journal,&lt;/i&gt; which has brought together the Perl  community as a common forum for new developments in Perl.    Any Perl book can show the syntax of Perl's functions, but only this one is a comprehensive guide to all the nooks and crannies of the language. Any Perl book can explain typeglobs, pseudohashes, and closures, but only this one shows  how they really work. Any Perl book can say that &lt;i&gt;my&lt;/i&gt; is faster than &lt;i&gt;local,&lt;/i&gt; but only this one explains why. Any Perl book  can have a title, but only this book is affectionately known by all Perl programmers as "The Camel."      This third edition of &lt;i&gt;Programming Perl&lt;/i&gt; has been expanded to cover version 5.6 of this maturing language. New topics include threading, the compiler, Unicode, and other  new features that have been added since the previous edition.</Content></EditorialReview></EditorialReviews></Item></Items></ItemLookupResponse>
