Review:
Being a complete newbie to advanced scripting languages (ok, I know some javascript, but that's all) I wanted to learn PHP. And there couldn't be an easier book than this one. This book covers PHP as well as some basic programming elements needed to understand PHP. A wonderful way to learn not only coding in PHP, but coding in general. Certainly, this book is recommended for people who want to learn PHP.

Review:

Levine and Young take advantage of the Dummies format's strength with command-line operating systems. They flatten the learning curve and have even the greenest beginner doing useful work with Unix in mere hours. Once you get past a couple of pointless chapters about offering pizza to Unix experts in exchange for help, you'll find conceptual explanations of files, directories, permissions, and redirection. Command explanations take a hybrid form; they mix "type this verbatim" statements with tables showing switches and parameters. Much of Unix for Dummies is task-oriented. You'll find a whole chapter on printing, fo... Rest of this review on the detail page
