Question on book: PHP Objects, Patterns, and Practice
Hey everyone,
At the following link https://laracasts.com/recommended-reading the book "PHP Objects, Patterns, and Practice 4th ed. 2013 Edition" by Matt Zandstra is recommended.
I wanted to purchase the book on kindle, but as the book was published in 2013 I was curious to know whether a large part of the content would be outdated or not, or if there's a newer version in the works that I should wait for.
Any advice on this or recommendations for other books on design patterns in PHP would be appreciated.
Thank you!

I've re-read this book recently and it's still very relevant in my opinion. Sure it mentions a few things that may not be quite so relevant these days (PEAR for example) but its core teaching are still sound.
I guess you could always ask Matt (https://twitter.com/getinstance_mz) if a new version is in the works.

@robgeorgeuk Looks like there is something in the works! No idea when it will be completed though?
Just signed a contract to write PHP Objects Patterns and Practice Edition 5 - should be a fun one!
