Tell me, what's so specific about e-commerce with Perl?
It's a field in which people are widely using Perl. Why not have a book on it? For just a second, let us Perl programmers think like business men. it's problems and solutions are language independent. Perl has many features that solve common problems in e-commerce, as do other languages. But I prefer Perl, so why not hype it? Security isn't a topic that's e-commerce specific - and the fact that an e-commerce site needs to address security isn't something that's only important for e-commerce sites using Perl. If I ran a major online business that uses Apache and mod_perl, I would certainly want to know what Perl can do for me security wise. I would be interested in other things as well (like the reliability and speed of Perl), but security would be a concern. Just look at all the bugs that people have recently found in PHP.
