 Joomla Book First off I must say for someone who spends 70% of their day on the Internet, I found it very refreshing to sit down with a good old paperback book, it had been a while since I had done so and found it quite exciting. Initially I did not expect much from this book, perhaps it was the books cover graphics but still I pressed on and started my Journey through it.
As I read through the book from page to page I was quite surprised, I found the information contained in it to be extremely well illustrated and to the point, there was even information contained in it that I did not even know about Joomla which made me realize how really well this book and the information in it had been researched and implemented making it easy for almost anyone to understand.
In short “Building websites with Joomla” from PACKT Publishing is truly a excellent source of information for the Joomla beginner and is a worthwhile read even for the seasoned Joomla professional, actually I would recommend that anyone building websites with Joomla for clients make this book a part of their offer or even include it in their pricing as it will save you hours upon hours of training and assisting users in working with Joomla.
