Perl is one of the most important and powerful languages available today, and Pro Perl shares in-depth practices to exploiting Perl’s best features. So if you are an experienced developer and want to reap more from Perl, then you are well suited for this book.

Author Peter Wainwright never loses sight of practical details. And he pays particularly close attention to running Perl in multiple environments. (Early chapters explore installing and running on Unix, Windows, and Mac.) Wainwright also includes advice for running and deploying scripts—including Perl internals, auto-loading modules, and installable modules for distribution. And instead of full-length scripts, Wainwright simply presents many short code excerpts.

About the Author

Peter Wainwright is a developer and software engineer specializing in Perl, Apache, and other open-source projects. He got his first taste of programming on a BBC Micro and gained most of his early programming experience writing applications in C on Solaris. He then discovered Linux, shortly followed by Perl and Apache, and has been happily programming there ever since.

When he is not engaged in development or writing books, Wainwright spends much of his free time maintaining the Space Future website at www.spacefuture.com. He is an active proponent of commercial passenger space travel and cofounded Space Future Consulting, an international space tourism consultancy firm.
