CakePHP Application Development
CakePHP Application Development

As the first book to come out on CakePHP, there was a lot of pressure on this title to be really strong. On the whole, it has pretty good coverage of the topic, but the flow of the title is undermined by shoddy editing.

= The Good =
This title is a pretty decent introduction to CakePHP. Coming from a background in PHP and having worked with Ruby on Rails for a few years as well, I think the authors did a good job covering the basics and putting together some interesting projects for you to work on.

= The Bad =
As a technical editor for several books myself, I know how difficult it is to catch all of the mistakes (missing semicolons and the like), but the level of technical errors in this book was shocking. One simple example: the minLength validation option was misspelled everywhere (as "minLenght") -- in code examples, in body copy, etc. And that's just one example. It's obvious that the examples in this book were not thoroughly vetted despite having 2 reviewers and 2 technical editors. Sure, maybe I'm nitpicking, but I feel strongly that when a technical book comes out, it needs to be as accurate as possible to reduce the frustration level of people following our examples line-by-line.
