Good read
I have done a fair amount of php development in my time but not for a few years. I chose this book as a quick refresher on php.
Overall it is a helpful read and will definately familiarise you with the language.
I did notice a lot of syntatic errors in the example code used in the book, if I did not know better this would definately confuse a novice.
