> QUESTION:
> What's the best way to bring a book to the attention of the masses who
> could benefit from it but haven't yet recognized their need for it?
>
> ANSWER:
> By getting satisfied readers to post comments on the book on its
> Amazon.com web page! (According to my publisher.)
>
> So I'd appreciate it if those on this list who have read my "Minimal
> Perl" book--you know who you are--would go to:

> ... and post your comments there by scrolling down to the Customer
> Reviews section.
>
> Note that these "reviews" don't need to be extensive, and there's no
> requirement that you need to read the entire book first. Any comments
> you can share that you think might help a prospective reader make a
> wiser decision about acquiring the book would be appropriate.
>
> By the way, those of you who haven't visited the book's Amazon page
> lately may be interested to know that the "Search Inside!" feature has
> finally come alive, letting you browse through the book.
