Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The standard for Peral Database Programming
If you are serious about using Perl to interface with any database, then this is the only book will will ever need. Amazon was the only place I could find a copy, since the book is currently out-of-print.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - pretty good book, but so is the CPAN documentation
This is a (the definitive) book on Perl DBI. I swapped book-for-book with a former co-worker for this. I keep it in the office for the newbies.

If you're already a pro at PERL, you should be able to get by with just the CPAN documentation. However, if your employer is footing the bill, get it. :-)

Very nice tips and tricks you can pick up, even a few for the pros.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - An alright book for the DBI beginner

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - still a valuable reference for multiple databases
This book has been a valuable reference of mine for several years for web database programming projects. I bought the book soon after it was released and continue to use it - sometimes on a daily basis depending upon the project I am currently developing. I realized from the beginning that much of the material in this book came from the online documentation and have still found the book to be useful enough to stay on my A-list of reference materials. Applications like CGIScripter need to utilize up ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good book for what it is.
It's hard to imagine an entire book about this. It's not bad, for what it is though. If you have any database knowledge and read the appropriate sections already in Programming Perl or the Perl Cookbook, I don't imagine you'll get too much use from this.
