…project to both read and use). While Modern Perl and Perl Best Practices seem to be now the defacto texts to follow in this field, I highly suggest to also supplement your learning of good Perl by reading Perl Medic by Peter Scott. While its main purpose is how to maintain a legacy codebase, its an absolute gem when it comes to what type of Perl code you should be churning out.
re: Perl Medic... Excellent book. What I learned there has served me very well with Perl, and also helped me with work on some crufty Python as well! Also, yeah... I should take-back the TDD comment, or at least re-word…
Two excellent books I can recommend for someone working with legacy Perl: Perl Medic (Peter J. Scott) - http://amzn.com/0201795264 Effective Perl Programming (Joseph N. Hall, Joshua A. McAdams, brian d foy) - http://amzn.com/0321496949 Besides those, having a good reference to the language…
……无论是阅读还是上手使用都很棒的项目）。虽然《Modern Perl》和《Perl 最佳实践》（Perl Best Practices）现在似乎成了该领域的必读经典，但我强烈建议再读读彼得·斯科特（Peter Scott）的《Perl 医手》（Perl Medic）来补足你对优秀 Perl 代码的理解。虽然它的核心主题是怎样维护遗留代码库，但要是论及到底该写出什么样的 Perl 代码，它绝对是一座宝藏。

在我看来，彼得·斯科特写的《Perl 医手》（Perl Medic）是我读过关于重构和处理遗留代码最好的书，没有之一
To my mind, Perl Medic by Peter Scott is the best book I've ever read on refactoring and working with legacy code
关于《Perl 医手》（Perl Medic）……绝赞的好书。我从中汲取的经验不仅在 Perl 上帮了大忙，后来用来对付一些陈旧蹩脚的 Python 代码时也极为有用！另外，确实……我应该把之前关于 TDD 的那番言论收回，或者至少换个说法……

给维护遗留 Perl 代码的人推荐两本极好的书：彼得·J·斯科特写的《Perl 医手》（Perl Medic）- http://amzn.com/0201795264，以及约瑟夫·N·霍尔等人写的《Effective Perl Programming》- http://amzn.com/0321496949。除了这些，手头备一本语言参考手册……

《Perl 医手》（Perl Medic）是一本神作，它借由 Perl 这一视角，深入探讨了通用场景下的代码重构问题
Perl Medic is a phenomenal book about refactoring in the general case, through the lens of Perl
