Let's add italics around also - *also*. The reason is that we use also twice in this sentence - when I add the italics, I read the second in my head differently, so it doesn't sound bad. Or we could remove one of the "also"s :).

:class:`Symfony\\Component\\HttpFoundation\\ParameterBag`. This is mostly used
to attach information that belongs to the Request and that needs to be
accessed from many different points in your application. For information
on how this is used in the Symfony2 framework, see
:ref:`the Symfony2 book <book-fundamentals-attributes>`.

Finally, the raw data sent with the request body can be accessed using
:method:`Symfony\\Component\\HttpFoundation\\Request::getContent()`::

$content = $request->getContent();

For instance, this may be useful to process a JSON string sent to the
application by a remote service using the HTTP POST method.
