Drupal - How does it work...And how do I make it work for me?

Jeff Eaton presents Drupal to the developer.  He outlines the process of making a web-request, using index.php-controller as the stepping-stone, and how to hook into the Drupal-system.  "Hooking" is Drupals way of modifying functionality, and hooks are primarily implemented inside Modules.

Jeff does an amazing job of keeping it simple to understand, and reveals the processes that power Drupal enough to get you more than started coding your own Drupal Modules.
