Excellent bookWhen I bought this book I'd not tackled any Ajax/PHP or serious Javascript and hadn't tried to use the Google Maps API, having said that I'm a reasonably competent programmer and I had a project to focus on. From that start this book has been excellent. It does a good job of explaining what can be done with the API and builds on humble beginnings to create more advanced mapping applications.
I can also highly recommend the authors website which provides additional information and downloads. I even emailed them with a question and received a detailed response within a day or two. Now that's quality.
So if you are thinking of writing a Google Maps application and you want a good launchpad this book is for you. I highly recommend it.
