5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent overview of current web technologies, 24 May 2000
By A Customer
This book is an excellent review of all the technologies of the web, and of all the options available to programmers and developers. It is a great place to start if you are a student, programmer or consultant, and you want to be able to talk knowlegably about the WWW. My only critisizm is the title, this book won't make you a master of anything. But it will give you an excellent understanding of how the web works, and what tools are available to programmers to make it work. Highly recommended

5.0 out of 5 stars Best synopsis of current web technologies, 10 Feb 2000
By A Customer
If you are looking for a book which can give you the big picture on several web technologies- not to mention acronyms- (HTML, DHTML, CSS, JavaScript, XML, XSL, Java, VB, Perl, CGI) this is the book for you. The web is greater than the sum of its parts... take a look at all the parts from a unified perspective. I found the author's interviews with specialists in each of the technologies to be especially informative.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent! There is no book like it!, 10 Feb 2000
By A Customer
I'm in a Masters Level Program in Software Engineering and have been trying to decide whether I should specialize in Web Programming. Having taken specialized courses such as advanced Java and advanced Unix Programming, I needed something more general to give me a wider perspective but detailed enough overview of Web technologies to help me make my decision. Thank You Mr Cintron for providing this valuable service! Your book will probably be the most important tool I will use to make my decision on whether to make a career in Web Technology.
