Can anyone recommend any good PHP books for beginners?

I know SEO, PPC, some web development & CSS, Google Analytics like a ninja, BUT I don't know crap about php.

Can anyone recommend  books or online courses as a great starting point on learning php?

Francisco, depends which medium you like the most i mean reading or looking to videos... but if you prefer reading the very basic of PHP with examples and tutorials then i guess this guide by plusnet should help!

I started with one very nice tutorial in https://tutsplus.com/, it's a pity that can't find it now because I have to continue soon with it and it was very useful and free...
