4.0 out of 5 stars Good simple guide. Nothing fancy just clear short and simple, 8 Mar 2006
Well, I have had this book now for a while, I have read through it and I can say it is a handy book to have. It doesn't claim to be the definative guide, it doesn't contain fancy graphics. What it does contain though is over 20 short lessons that give you an understanding of what CSS is about and the kinds of things that can be achieved.

I would recommend this title for beginners as it doesn't drown you in technicalities, it addresses the core of what beginners would want to know such as positioning, box models and background images to name but a few.

This book will not teach you all there is to know but it will give examples on how to achieve each of the subject areas addressed.

I read the book cover to cover, it didn't take that long and it is surprising what has lodged in my head. I now have a deeper understanding of what is possible and the code needed to achieve it.

It's worth it's price.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent first introduction, 13 Jun 2006
By N. Lee (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the best introduction to any computing subject that I have ever read. It explains first principals logically and clearly, which is useful even if you have used CSS before.
It is not intended as a reference guide and once you've read it you will probably almost never refer to it again; so you will need a second book, or use the web for reference.
However, even though I only read it once, it was definately worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worthy for beginners , 7 Aug 2007
By M. Robson (Newcastle, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book covers all the basics of CSS that you would think of, and shows you how to do things through ten minute sessions that allow you to pick the ideas and techniques that are in the book very easily.
