Default Good Security Book?

I am looking for a good security book for PHP, could anyone help me? It would have to cover almost everything I need to know, and it would help if it gave the information through the eyes of the hacker. I.E. what the hacker would try to do, and how to prevent it.

Any suggestions? Please explain to me WHY you recommend the book, as well.

I am reading Pro PHP Security (Chris Snyder) and it covers some interesting topics. Don't know what is the best one

The PHP Security Consortium is the first place to visit when talking about PHP security. They also have some manuals for offline use, if you need them...
