This book is arguably the best one out there to start your Perl adventure, and I've learned a lot of small details about programming in Perl. Thank you, Randal L. Schwartz for writing this wonderful book. I'm going to start Intermediate Perl immediately.

Ali reviewed Perl & LWP by Sean M. Burke
Review of 'Perl & LWP' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Awesome book to learn about LWP, spidering websites and many more topics. The only disadvantage is that the book is a bit outdated and the style in which the Perl codes are written is a bit old and needs to be updated.

Ali rated David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest: 5 stars
Review of 'Book That Shook the World' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
The book explains evolution and natural selection from different points of view including Western and Hindu philosophers and thinkers and believes that the two can learn from each other. The part about the fight between the religion and Darwin's evolutionary idea was of great interest to me, in which you can read about the inability of religious reasons to explain evolution and the concept of different species.
