Note that he wants perl+mysql, not php+mysql :)

Btw, i was talking about the scarcity of examples in the web searcheable
by google.com. Is perl+mysql not a hot topic after all?

That was just a starting point. You can look up his other books for
yourself:

http://www.kitebird.com/mysql-perl/

There's also not a whole lot to say about Perl and MySQL. His books are a
good starting point if you have limited exposure to Perl and/or MySQL, but
the technologies are distinct of each other. If you know SQL, you should be
able to use the Perl DBI and drivers to query your databases. If you know
MySQL, you should have an idea of what tasks you could automate with a
scripting language like Perl. The advantage of the Perl DBI is that it hides
the complexity of connecting to different databases in the drivers, so all
you really need to know is some SQL. So whether it's Perl and
(MySQL|Oracle|MSSQL|Postgresql) it doesn't make a huge difference to your
programs.

If you're just interested in how to use Perl to interact with a database,
drop the idea that you need to find information on MySQL for now and go
straight to "Programming the Perl DBI". Once you've mastered that part of
the equation you can read the MySQL documentation to find out what the
pecularities of that database system are.

The great thing about Perl is the DBI. You can actually look at articles
that explain how Perl connects and uses pretty much ANY database and it
should be trivial to tweak that knowledge for MySQL.

That's unintelligible nonsense.
