Drupal Book Review

I am not reviewing a book today, but I soon will be. Packt Publishing have asked me to review Matt Butcher’s new book Drupal 6 JavaScript and jQuery. The book looks pretty interesting. Although it isn’t on the same scale, being asked to review a serious Drupal developer book, is a bit like Obama winning the noble peace prize - ok maybe I am exaggerating a little there.

I really like YUI, but Drupal has made me interested in jQuery. One of the things awesome things about Drupal is that you can use jQuery without ever having to touch jQuery. This has made me lazy about learning jQuery - especially in the context of Drupal. It look like I have run out of excuses.

The book should arrive in France by the end of the week, but I won’t be back in France for a couple of weeks, I have heading off to China for 10 days or so to catch up with friends and discuss some ideas about doing cool things with Drupal. Watch this space.
