The 6th edition of this popular book has been fully updated for PHP 8, including attributes, constructor property promotion, new argument and return pseudo-types, and more. It also covers many features new since the last edition including typed properties, the null coalescing operator, and void return types. This book provides a solid grounding in PHP's support for objects, it builds on this foundation to instill core principles of software design and then covers the tools and practices needed to develop, test, and deploy robust code. PHP 8 Objects, Patterns, and Practice begins by covering PHP's object-oriented features. It introduces key topics including class declarations, inheritance, and reflection. The next section is devoted to design patterns. It explains the principles that make patterns powerful. You’ll cover many of the classic design patterns including enterprise and database patterns. The last segment of the book covers the tools and practices that can help turn great code into a successful project. The section shows how to manage multiple developers and releases with git, and how to manage builds and dependencies with Composer. It also explores strategies for automated testing and continuous integration. After reading and using this book, you will have mastered object-oriented enhancements, design patterns, and the essential development tools available for PHP 8. What You Will Learn Work with object fundamentals: write classes and methods, instantiate objects, and create powerful class hierarchies using inheritance Master advanced object-oriented features, including static methods and properties, managing error conditions with exceptions, and creating abstract classes and interfaces Understand and use design principles to deploy objects and classes effectively in your projects Discover a set of powerful patterns that you can implement in your own projects Guarantee a successful project including unit testing; version control and build, installation, and package management; and continuous integration Who This Book Is For Anyone with at least a basic knowledge of PHP who wants to use its object-oriented features in their projects. It is also for PHP coders who want to learn about the practices and tools (version control, testing, continuous integration, etc) that can make projects safe, elegant and stable. Review: Fabulous book. - This book is so well written. It’s exhaustive but not exhausting. I really enjoy how things are thorough but simultaneously get to the point. It’s well explained and not cryptic - definitely worth the purchase and I’ll buy future versions. Would absolutely recommend for anyone on their PHP journey. Review: More than 200 pages of new content - “Repetition is the mother of learning, the father of action, which makes it the architect of accomplishment.” ― Zig Ziglar. I have the book that covers the 7.0 version, and today I got the new edition that covers 8.0. The good thing about reading this book a second time is that with five years of experience in the industry and have worked on multiple projects, some legacy and others with modern architecture. Now I appreciate the clarity and the wisdom that this author has distilled in these pages. This is a book for mid to advance PHP developers; I wouldn't recommend this to a person trying to learn to code; OOP is to much of a complex subject to grasp when you are starting. But if you have worked with objects in the past, you are a library maintainer, or wants to gain deeper insight into best practices and go to your next level as a software engineer; then this book is a must to add to your collection. Definitely worth every penny. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #732,165 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #415 in Cloud Computing (Books) #768 in Software Development (Books) #1,702 in Programming Languages (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (74) | | Dimensions | 6.75 x 1.75 x 9.75 inches | | Edition | Sixth | | ISBN-10 | 1484267907 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1484267905 | | Item Weight | 3.2 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 858 pages | | Publication date | April 3, 2021 | | Publisher | Apress | ## Images ![PHP 8 Objects, Patterns, and Practice: Mastering OO Enhancements, Design Patterns, and Essential Development Tools - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61g1gWY00qL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fabulous book. *by L***T on October 26, 2025* This book is so well written.

I also spent years teaching computers. This is one of the best. It's well organized, thorough, and really teaches you. If you want to learn PHP, OO, or both, or maybe just to brush up, this is a great choice. ## Frequently Bought Together - PHP 8 Objects, Patterns, and Practice: Mastering OO Enhancements, Design Patterns, and Essential Development Tools - Laravel: Up & Running: A Framework for Building Modern PHP Apps - PHP & MySQL: Server-side Web Development --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/300084358-php-8-objects-patterns-and-practice-mastering-oo-enhancements-design](https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/300084358-php-8-objects-patterns-and-practice-mastering-oo-enhancements-design) --- *Product available on Desertcart Oman* *Store origin: OM* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
