This is a well-written, practical book that gives you concrete, hands-on examples for how to write some of the best markup on earth. Highly recommended to any new web designers who are interested in how to better hone their craft.

Was a great book when it came out, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone today: Too outdated by now.

Really excellent book on making both standards compliant design with CSS, but also building in precautions for careless users.

Very good book. A bit outdated, but still has a lot of useful information and techniques that can be applied today.

Dan Cederholm is an authority for a reason. He knows what he's talking about.

Don't even question it. Just buy it already. It will rescue you from countless hours of WTFing.
