[Sussex] Perl ( Life is Ironic )

Here's a little piece of irony for you (in consideration of some posts
earlier this week).

I am currently holding some discussions (to early to give details), but it
is looking that quite likely that as a result of these discussions Perl (as
a companion to C) may become part of my daily existence.  I wonder if my
views on it as a language would change as a result of continued exposure (it
certainly hasn't worked that way with VB :) )?

Anyhow, can anyone recommend a good Perl book or website from which a
clueful developer could get a good idea of Perls more advanced
functionality?  I'm not looking for "Teach yourself Perl in 24 hours"
here... I already have an old copy of the Camel book kicking around, is it
worth looking at a newer edition (I'm guessing not)?
