I am always afraid releasing something new. What if people will hate it? What if they find mistakes? A lot of them? I always feel it is not ready yet but I can't wait till it is. So I have to go with a different strategy. I know it is not ready yet. So anyone who buys now, will also get all future updates. Free of charge. I plan to release a new "edition" every month. Perl e-books Let me introduce the first, actually first 3 of my Perl e-books. I took all the articles from the Beginner Perl Maven tutorial. They don't cover all the material yet but I did not want to wait any more. I added the slides from my Beginner Perl Maven training course. I have been using and improving these slides for many years now. I think they are quite comprehensive for teaching Perl to beginners but they lack the detailed explanations. (That's what I am writing and publishing as the "tutorial".) I also included more than 50 exercises I run during my classes with all the solutions. All that came out to be 210 PDF pages. I split them in two so they can also be purchased separately. That's how I reached the 3 e-books. Beginner Perl Maven (part 1) How to install Perl, how to run scripts
