NAME

Net::Amazon::Property::Book - Class for books on amazon.com

SYNOPSIS

  use Net::Amazon;
  # ...
  if($resp->is_success()) {
      for my $prop ($resp->properties) {
          print join("/", $prop->authors()), " ",
                $prop->title(), " ",

DESCRIPTION

"Net::Amazon::Property::Book" is derived from "Net::Amazon::Property" and on top of the all-purpose methods the base class provides, it offers specialized accessors for book parameters.

METHODS

Returns a list of the book's authors. There's also a "author()" method which just returns the first author.
Returns the book's publishing company as a string.
Returns the book's title as a string.
Returns the book's ISBN number.
Returns the book's edition.
Returns the book's EAN number.
Returns the number of pages.
Returns the Dewey decimal number, this is for non-fiction only.

This method is deprecated (2011-10-28) as it does not appear to be returned by Amazon any more.

Returns the publication date.
Returns the release date.

For historical reasons, this method used to return the publication date. However, as of version Net::Amazon 0.44 the release date is returned, and a separate "publication_date()" method is available.

Initializes an object by passing a hash of hashes structure containing the XML data returned from the service. Usually, this is just used by "Net::Amazon" internally to initialize objects for on backcoming data.

Check out Net::Amazon::Property for all-purpose accessors, like "year", "OurPrice", "ListPrice", etc.
