PBP is very good, but pretty desperately needs an update. There might end up being a new version for Perl 6, but I doubt it will ever get one for Perl 5 and that's unfortunate.
Several pretty big recommendations (particularly regarding OOP in Perl) from PBP aren't really regarded as having stood the test of time very well.
