davorg has told me that version 2 of the Castro book will be much better (or less awfull :) as he has corrected a large number of errors in cooperation with the author.

See his use.perl.org journal for details

    The second edition of the Castro book has been out for a couple of months now. It is a lot better, but it still only teaches a subset of Perl and (as the title suggests) assumes that you're only interested in using Perl for CGI work.
