Eric A. Meyer is an American web design consultant and author. He is best known for his advocacy work on behalf of web standards, most notably CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), a technique for managing how HTML is displayed. Meyer has written a number of books and articles on CSS and given many presentations promoting its use. Eric currently works for Igalia.
Most of the book is reference material that either you'll find faster online or that is outdated (like a browser compatibility chart), but the first three chapters that explain positioning, that is, the box model, has never been as important as it is today, when we are building such rich web applications using an abusing the capabilities of CSS.
I think they should pick up those three first chapters, add a lot of screenshots and examples to them and release them as a book.
