Can anyone's recommend a good php book

Answer 1

Let's go!

If you are a beginner (also intermediate level is good), read "Learn PHP, MySql and JavaScript 4th Edition" by Robin Nixon to get a very (very very) good grasp of PHP and the most modern web tecnologies, Ajax too, one of the best book i ever read.

If you are not a beginner, i'm currently reading "Learning PHP7" by Antonio Lopez, it contains a short "PHP basics" introduction to make this book available for beginners, but it's one of the worst book ever to read as a beginner, any hard concept is bad explained and i have to search on Google to get a really understanding about what he's trying to teach me. However, it's a complete reference, you have to know all of the tecnologies listed in this book to be a PHP professional developer.
