Lots of new books have hit the shelves recently. Osborne McGraw-Hill has two new titles, Debugging Perl: Troubleshooting for Programmers by Martin Brown, and Perl: A Beginner's Guide by Donald Thomas and R. Wyke. Perl! I Didn't Know You Could Do That, also by Martin Brown, is available from Sybex. Manning has another Perl offering in Data Munging with Perl by David Cross. Prentice Hall has published Perl How to Program by Harvey M. Deitel, Paul J. Deitel, T. R. Nieto, and David McPhie.

Lincoln Stein's latest book, from Addison-Wesley, is Network Programming with Perl. And last (and if judging by size, also least), O'Reilly has put out the mod_perl Pocket Reference, by Andrew Ford.
