On a "Learning" level, there's actually very little difference between
PHP 4 and PHP 5, so I would you'd be safe to use this book.

All the basics, like variables, conditionals, forms processing,
database access, etc., aren't different. The only major change is
objects, but that's easily segmented into its own world.
