It's the best written computer-related book I've read. On a par with Friedl's "Mastering Regular Expressions".

Very highly recommended.

That comparison sold me. You deserve a commission.

Thank you!

Be warned, the O'Reilly print quality is miles apart between the two. Their print-on-demand text quality and the binding are real let-downs.

That's too bad. The MRE book was great - the special typography for zero-width indicators and whatnot was really great. Progress.

Currently reading the book and I agree with your recommendation, it's very well-written, perhaps written with an intuitive learner in mind.
