Ah, the "Perl and MySQL for the Web" book, I imagine.
Whoever posted that review was an idiot.
As one of the technical reviewers for the book, I bugs me to see that
sort of comment there. I believe it's a really good book. I'm sure
that others who have read it will agree. I've already recommended it
to a few co-workers just for a few specific chapters.
