Kinda opposed to popular demand,

I would like the next book to be the equivilant of the camel book
"programming perl" .

I would like to know how Catalyst Work, so I can better figure things
on my one, instead of the desired receipe approach of a cookbook

I would like to learn the concepts behind catalyst.

I documentation if not great in this area, and I read the TOC and free
sample chapter of the first book, and it also seem to follow a receip
approach telling me the steps, but not explain in enough detail how
things work? and why?

So I want a theory and concept book, and I promise to buy it!
