Is that the O'Reilly book with the Llama on the cover? If so that is one
of the best books for starting Perl with IMHO.

Go to www.activestate.com and follow the links for ASPN Perl, works well
on win32 boxes, and the package manager is very good for when you start
to want modules not included as standard.

Well the Camel book; Programming Perl 3rd ed, also by O'Reilly is very
good, even if you have no previous programming experience, as it
explains everything clearly in fairly plain language.

also the links below are useful:-
