Thanks for posting about the book, Darren. Thought I’d point out a quick correction – Drew wasn’t able to contribute to the book (blame Amazon.co.uk for the misleading information) instead I helped out. In fact I wrote the ‘build your own blog engine’ chapter. Kashif says ‘why reinvent the wheel’ and it’s a valid point, but the real answer is ‘because it’s fun’ and it’s also a good way of learning PHP and MySQL as well as giving you full control of how your blog works.

If you have got WordPress, no need to go into the intricacies (and pains) to build up your own blog engine, why reinvent the wheel?

A PHP/MySQL-based blog engine.
I’m already doing that with one of my domains and can say that this book would probably offer some useful advice in that regard, but will need to read it to properly review.
It helps to know at the very least “basic HTML”…and taking that a step further to PHP is a big bonus in today’s world. ; )
