I also think that maybe, given your interest in this particular case, you ought to recuse yourself.
I appreciate the concern, but I thought about that beforehand and still stand by what I wrote.
Certainly I have an interest in having my books reviewed, but keep two things in mind. First, I give this book away for free. Second, I have a thread in my inbox right now lamenting the lack of publicity for things like Perl books and Perl culture and Perl community from Tom Christiansen (who also has an interest in having his books reviewed.)
Scolding people for promoting Perl seems counterproductive.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
