. Beginning PHP5 (Programmer to Programmer)
by: Dave W. Mercer, Allan Kent, Steven D. Nowicki, David Mercer, Dan Squier, Wankyu Choi, Heow EideGoodman, Ed LeckyThompson, Clark Morgan
July 16, 2004
I've been working through this book for four days now and I'm about to give up. There are too many typos and errors in the book (which seem to be fixed in the sample code you can download from the book's website). Also, the material is presented in an unhelpful order e.g. an exercise at the end of Chapter 2 requires techniques you only learn in Chapter 4. There is some great material here, but at least for me, it's too confusing for a complete beginner.

. PHP and MySQL Bible
by: Tim Converse, Joyce Park, Clark Morgan
May 11, 2004
First of I would like to say this is a great book and covers ALMOST everything for PHP. However it lacks something and that is continuity. Right from the start the book throughs are you extremely complex examples even for the form handling stuff. Which shows you how to make a newsletter manager. This is not ideal for a beginner. I suggest you get other books, and use this to expand on points. It does give you case studys at the end, but I do not feel they are explained enough. Buy other books, and if PHP still interests you get this. Otherwise leave it, you are not going to build interest by reading this book due to it being too complex.
