The First Book on Drupal 6 : "Building powerful and robust websites with Drupal 6"

image Packt Publishing has announced the first book on Drupal 6, titled Building powerful and robust websites with Drupal 6, which is an update to their bestselling "Drupal: Creating Blogs, Forums, Portals, and Community Websites", written by David Mercer.

"This book meets the booming demand for well presented, clear, concise, and above all practical information on how to move from knowing you want a website all the way through to designing and building it like a pro, and finally successfully managing and maintaining it.

Experienced technical author David Mercer expertly guides the reader through all the stages of building a professional website in a plain, articulate manner. Aimed in particular at beginners to Drupal, this book will allow readers to advance rapidly up the learning curve to the point where they can tackle any problem with confidence."

Packt Publishing will donate 5% of the proceeds of this book to the Drupal Association. The book will be released in February 2008 and is available with a 20% pre-order discount on their website. Packt are also still on the lookout for a cover image for this book, so if you're a keen photographer and would like to see one of your original images on the cover of this new book, send them a snap!
