Jump Start PHP is exactly as it states. If you're beginning your journey into the world of PHP then this book is a great way to start. It is quite thorough in explaining the initial concepts of PHP without being too verbose. I'd highly recommend this book to anyone as a place to begin your jouney into the world of PHP. Good Luck!!
