<p>Drupal is one of the most popular content management systems in use today. With it, you can create a variety of community-driven sites, including blogs, forums, wiki-style sites, and much more. <i>Pro Drupal Development</i> was written to arm you with knowledge to customize your Drupal installation however you see fit. The book assumes that you already possess the knowledge to install and bring a standard installation online. Then authors <strong>John VanDyk</strong> and <strong>Matt Westgate</strong> delve into Drupal internals, showing you how to truly take advantage of its powerful architecture.</p>
<p>Youll learn how to create your own modules, develop your own themes, and produce your own filters. You'll learn the inner workings of each key part of Drupal, including user management, sessions, the node system, caching, and the various APIs available to you. Of course, your Drupal-powered site isnt effective until you can efficiently serve pages to your visitors. As such, the authors have included the information you need to optimize your Drupal installation to perform well under high-load situations. Also featured is information on Drupal security and best practices, as well as integration of Ajax and the internationalization of your Drupal web site. Simply put, if you are working with Drupal at all, then you need this book.</p>

<li>This book is written by Drupal core developers. </li>
<li>Drupal architecture and behavior are mapped out visually. </li>
<li>Common pitfalls are identified and addressed. </li>
<li>Chapters provide regular discussion and reference to why things work they way they do, not just how. </li>
