A must have book for every level PHP programmer!

Core PHP Programming is the best PHP book I have read. The book covers pretty much every subject you can expect it to cover. What I especially like about the book is the way how the topics are structured in the book, which makes it easy to find what your looking for. Once you have found the function you need, you will appreciate the clear example that comes along with each function. The book goes further than just giving you the sum of properties, it describes it in great detail and also gives you advice. Eventhough the book holds much information, thanks to Leon Atkinson's writing the book is easy to read and understand. Because of this you can use the book as a study guide to learn PHP as a novice. I used the book to prepare for my Zend Certified Engineer PHP5 exam, for which I past this month. Experienced programmers will also appreciate the book as a reference guide on their desk. Every PHP developer should have a copy of this book in his personal library.
