MacPerl: Power and Easeby by Vicki Brown and Chris Nandor with foreword
by Matthias Neeracher and published by Prime Time Freeware, is hereby
awarded a rating of 4 Camels on the Camel Critiques page found at
http://www.perl.com/perl/critiques/

Here's the capsule review included there:

     If you're on a Mac and want to learn Perl, you want this book. It's
     specifically geared for you, written from an Apple perspective
     throughout. The prose is clean, and the typesetting refreshingly
     direct and easy to read, free of annoying artifacts too often found
     in books mentioned lower down on this list. 

I note that it is relatively expensive ($40), but worth it.
This is a tutorial book.
