Magento is one of the most popular PHP eCommerce solutions available for web developers. In their own words, it’s the fastest growing eCommerce platform in the world. Packt Publishing has generously donated a handful of copies of their latest Magento book, called “Magento 1.3: PHP Developer’s Guide”. Given that ThemeForest and CodeCanyon have both begun selling Magento themes and extensions, respectively, now would be a fantastic time to get on board with your training! To win a free copy, simply leave a comment, and I’ll randomly choose and contact some of you.
“Magento is the most powerful e-commerce solution around and has gained popularity in a short period of time. You can create and manage online stores using the extensive suite of powerful tools it offers. However, because of its powerful features, developing with Magento can be easier said than done.
This book will show you how to develop better and do more with the Magento. You will be able to extend and customize modules for the Magento system without editing the core system code. It will show you how to create both basic and advanced functionality modules for your store and help you turn your ideas for extending Magento into reality by building modules from scratch.”
Thanks so much to Packt Publishing for always helping out on Nettuts+!

Hi Jeffrey,
I am still quite new to the world of web design and have not yet dabbled with e-commerce whatsoever. I am very eager to learn, and hope to design/develop my first fully fledged e-commerce website. This book would be very helpful in getting me started
Have I sold myself well enough for a copy? If not, then you can see why I need this book :D
Thanks,
Kam
I always have some difficulty to learn Magento, so I bought their official user guide, and spent a lot of time getting used to it. Now I know how to use Magento very well but it is also the time to learn how to build theme, extension with Magento.
