Review:
If you have been using CSS for awhile this book is a useful
reference for specific techniques you have had trouble with or if your new
to CSS it will help you learn all the cool things you can do with CSS but
never thought to think of. The book is written in an easy to learn format
that is great for any level. -- Frank Stepanski, April 12 2007
The Art and Science of CSS was a quick read (208 pages) and packed
full of valuable code examples. Unlike other CSS books that teach you the
specifics of CSS with vague examples (not vague in a bad way), this book
teaches you specific examples and gives you extra resources. -- Nate Klaiber, May 2 2007
This is a how-to, cookbook kind of book that does a good job of
focusing on the most important "black magic" aspects of CSS. In a
well-written, couple of hundred pages it manages to do a good job of
covering images, backgrounds, and even those blasted rounded corners. (Who
knew they required so much extra work?)
-- Larry Hannay, April 8 2007
What can i say... as someone who has albeit limited CSS experience
(having mostly built sites in HTML or languages other than CSS), this book
is awesome.

of CSS brings together a talented collection of designers who will show you
how to take the building blocks of your web site's design (such as
headings, navigation, forms, and more) and bring them to life with fully
standards-compliant CSS.
This book helps you to design web sites that not only work well across all
browsers, are easy to maintain, and are highly accessible, but are also
visually stunning.
The book's full-color layout and large format (8" x 10") make this one of
the most usable and enjoyable CSS books available.
WHO IS THIS BOOK FOR?
This book is ideal for anyone who wants to gain the practical skills
involved in using CSS to make attractive web sites, especially if you're
not the type who likes to learn by memorizing a formal specification and
then trying to work out which browsers implemented it completely (does
anyone enjoy reading specifications?). The only knowledge you'll need to
have is some familiarity with HTML. This book will give designers the
skills they need to implement their ideas, and provides developers with
creative inspiration through practical examples.
