Padraic Brady has added a new blog post today about the release of chapters four, five, six and seven (and Appendix A) of his "Zend Framework: Surviving the Deep End" book:

To celebrate the mini relaunch of the website (read on) and free HTML version of the book, I have published a bumper pack of four chapters and an additional appendix. This brings the total to seven chapters of Zend Framework goodness (and that's only Part 1 of the book) and two appendices. In terms of pages, that's 70 pages of reading material in PDF form at US Letter page size. No, the text in PDFs is not gigantic..

These new chapters cover framework installation, a "hello world" tutorial, bootstraping, error handling and setting up a local development environment with Apache virtual hosts. You can grab your (completely free) copy of the book from its own website.
