I have been looking for a less theoretical book on XML/XSL for several months. This is the best I have found so far. Just as the title suggests: This book explains how to use XML to make working Web sites. I wanted to know how to transcode from XML using an XSL style sheet on the Web server and, after just 5 minutes reading, I found exactly what I needed to know in chapter 9 "XML on the Server". There is even a chapter on Schemas, which in most other books seems to be absent or only given a cursory description. At the end of each chapter there are a set references leading to more detailed information about each topic. All in all a very good read.

I bought this book knowing little about XML, XSL and all of the related technologies which are being used in a new generation of web design. Whilst it gives a good summary/overview of what approach you may take in terms of technologies and languages (particularly the various means of server-side XML rendering), it assumes some knowledge of XML (or at least some of the underlying associated principles, such as DOM) and a little more explanation into the technicalities for the un-initiated would have helped. Providing you buy this book knowing that you it will only give some guidance and direction (ie. you'll probably need to buy a host of others) you probably won't be disapointed though...

Michael's column "Beyond HTML" was the main reason I subscribed to WebTechniques magazine. Now that the column is finished here is a book with all that great content in one nice package. I started reading it Sunday morning and could not stop untill page 130 or so! Great on XSLT, client-side and server-side processing, UNIX and Microsoft, JSP and ASP, etc. Of course you'll need additional material for each of these technologies, but the book is a great resource anyway.
