Personally, I am a book addict. When not writing code, I spend my leisure reading.
I buy and read a lot of programming, web design & development, software development, and self-improvement books to learn and keep myself abreast on latest technology.
I actually learnt how to code (PHP, MySQL, SQL, HTML, CSS, jQuery, WordPress) reading books.
One of my favorite book publisher is Peachpit. They offer unique learning experiences in the fields of Web design and development, photography, graphic design, and more.
Some of the books I have bought from Peachpit include:
- PHP 6 and MySQL 5 for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual QuickPro Guide
- HTML5 & CSS3 Visual QuickStart Guide
- MySQL, Second Edition: Visual QuickStart Guide
- PHP Advanced and Object-Oriented Programming: Visual QuickPro Guide
- Effortless E-Commerce with PHP and MySQL
Due to my location (Nigeria, Africa), it will cost me a lot to get a hard-copy of these books hence I always buy the e-book copies.
Each week, the folk at Peachpit offered a new eBook for a one-week period tagged eBook Deal of the Week for a price of $9.99 which is about 75% discount.
If you are looking for photography, graphic design, Web design and development, programming, digital video, and business books to buy, do not forget to check out Peachpit publisher.
