Yet it is also a reference text that doesn't regurgitate the specification like a manual. The examples stand on their own merit without being hacked to fit a central premise or system.(I've found this a very irritating and awkward problem with other example books - if your problem or design doesn't fit into the overall premise, the code behind it isn't covered in some books.) This book can really help you to see the distinction between formatting and data as the basic HTML in the examples doesn't need major changes from chapter to chapter. A few tweaks of the stylesheet and the plain document can be transformed. Includes CSS1, CSS2, interactive menus, multi-column pages, CSS for screen, print or webTV and CSS validation.
No need to worry about whether the example will leave you in a blind alley, this text is not trying to build an entire system. Each example is well crafted, giving the feel of a reference text.
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) by Example starts with the basics and then progresses to more advanced subject matter. The book covers most of what comprises the initial level of CSS, or CSS1, along with several key features of CSS2 supported by current browsers. There's clear explanations for those new to CSS, and there are easy to follow examples of more advanced techniques like ribbon menus and backwards compatability.

well, that's not all true, but if you are a designer digging into css for the first time -this is NOT a book for you. this is not based on the actual quality of information in the book -which by the way is excellent, it has to do with presentation. any designer or web professional with a slight interest in the visual style of his or her site does not want to learn css from a guy who's sense of graphic design is far below par. to conclude;
if you are a web professional with good experience in css, this book is a good supplement for reference and browsing. if you are starting out with css from a designers point of view, stick to jeff zeldman or eric meyer

I was a beginner in Web Design and Development and I want to know how can I create my own Style Sheets which I can use in my Web site so its looks professional and this book was my right choice to read and now I have create my own Style Sheets and embed them into to my Websites by just reading this book.
My advice will be to buy this book if you want to master Style Sheets or want to know more about web design/development.
