Comment If you're just getting into drupal, get this book! (Score 1) 122
... if you're already a serious drupal user, you've probably preordered it.
When our company decided to focus on Drupal Development, one of the first things I did was sign up for one of Lullabot's Drupal training workshops. I paid almost $2,000 for the 5 days, which featured 3 of the authors. It was one of the best sources of Drupal information I've encountered, easily worth the cost.
There's no questions that all of the authors are "Drupal superstars", contributing an enormous amount of programming, documentation, support, and general good will. The review doesn't mention that for all her tireless efforts, Angie Byron has been appointed as the official maintainer of the upcoming Drupal 7.
The authors are great at Drupal, and they're some of the best communicators I've met.
I have no doubt that "Using Drupal" will become one of the canonical references, right along with "Pro Drupal Development", widely considered to be the Drupal programmer's bible.
