Actually - I wouldn't be surprised if a niche Perl book did sell better than a generic Perl book. Perl isn't the most popular kid on the block ATM. So there are few folk looking for general books. I wouldn't be surprised if the market of existing Perl devs who are looking for a decent introduction to Catalyst/Moose/whatever could be larger than the new Perl developers looking for general books. ("better" in this context of course does not translate to "well" ;-) Cheers, Adrian -- adri...@quietstars.com / +44 (0)7752 419080 / @adrianh / quietstars.com Subscribe to the latest Agile & Lean UX news here > http://is.gd/KREt5S
