It is a question of definition of what is debugging. If it includes the prevention thing then "Perl Debugged" is an excellent book. It covers a lot of aspects of "making your code bug free". On the other hand if we define "debugging" as the thing you do *after* you wrote the code then ...... ... the book of Richard Foley will be a good book to look for. ... this is what I am looking for.
