Bunch of free PHP e-books

"Stalemate" asked in http://www.phpcentral.com/40-e-books-php.html for links to free PHP e-books, so I started digging around a bit for him hoping to be helpful. The vast majority of the leads were to commercial e-books or outright scam pages set up for SEO purposes, but then I came across a post in Sam's Blog. He's basically already done the work I hoped to do, and he did it very well. His post is a good sized listing of titles and descriptions of free PHP e-books, with direct links for downloading them at no charge. I thought his excellent work deserved a thread of its own, and I have quoted the e-book titles/descriptions but you will have to visit Sam's entry to get the links.

2010 UPDATE FROM ADMIN: Sam's blog has been offline since 2008. I dug up some rar file downloads purporting to contain most of the PHP e-books in the list. See end of post.
