On her blog today, Ligaya Turmelle mentions the review that Slashdot.org has done for their book "The PHP Anthology 2nd Edition" (SitePoint).

From the review:

The primary strength of this book is the significant amount of information provided to the reader, in the form of summaries of critical Web programming problems, working PHP code that addresses those problems, discussion as to why each particular approach was taken, and occasional asides that warn the reader about special difficulties that they might encounter as they implement the solutions within their own development environments and for their own projects

They also talk about the contents of the (cook)book, other strengths and weaknesses and the target audience the book shoots for. You can find out more about the book, including purchasing options on its page on the SitePoint website.
