Enthusiastic Intro
As the first few lines in the Preface of your text book (Programming Perl) say, Perl is a language for getting your job done.
It takes the authors of the book many pages in the Preface just to describe what it's all about (and many more pages in the first chapter - An Overview of Perl). Needless to say, it is a very powerful language that allows you to do just about everything very efficiently without too much hassle.

Installing Perl
If you're running Windows, you can get a Windows Perl distribution from ActivePerl (http://www.activeperl.com). If you're using UNIX (Linux, Solaris, etc.) then it's more than likely that Perl is already installed.
