"The updated version of classic PHP book" is missing a "the".
I am unfamiliar with its history, so why is the book a "classic", and why is it relevant to mention now that it is an "updated version"?

I might be overexcited about this book since I like it so much and believe it deserves a place on the list. Here is a more neutral description:
PHP book with amazing illustrations that covers all the fundamentals of PHP and MYSQL with practical examples.
Please let me know if you think I can somehow further improve the book description.

Your excitement is forgiven. 😄 If you'd replace 'amazing' with 'excellent', it works for me.

Fine.
Just noticed that four later entries in that bullet list, from Building Secure PHP Apps through Scaling PHP, do not end in a period (.). Could you add them? Saves a separate PR.

Thanks. |
PHP&MYSQL by Jon Duckett is an amazing book with beautiful illustrations which was updated in 2022 and teaches everything that might be needed in a day to day work with PHP and MYSQL. I firmly believe this books deserves to be on the list. Since it's the newest one and has a very high rating I decided to place it on the top of the list.
Thanks.
