Hideous Waste of Time and MoneyMay 6, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
First thing: I already know PHP pretty well. I picked this up because the price was right and because it IS titled "Mastering PHP 5". I had hoped it could help bridge some gaps in my knowledge of the new features specific to PHP 5, particularly the new OOP features, the new standard library stuff, etc.
This thing is pathetic! It mostly consists of the monotonal narrator writing a tiny bit of code and showing it execute without explaining why things are as they are. It talked about data types in PHP as though booleans, integers, and strings are the only data types. The section on setting up PHP on windows discussed modifying only two lines in the php.ini file (register_globals and magic_quotes_gpc) without discussing why those modifications were happening.
All in all this is truly horrible and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

I could have written this material in my sleep. The screenshots are all in notepad with the php manual open in the background, so you can tell the author is looking things up. The monotone narrative voice will put you to sleep. Too many incorrect wordings/terminologies in what I heard to even point out here.
