The CSS Anthology - 2nd edition

The CSS Anthology 2nd edition - book cover

About this book

This book is my attempt to pass on the tricks and techniques that allow me to quickly and easily develop Websites and applications using CSS. You won’t find pages and pages of theory in it. What you will find are solutions that will enable you to do the cool stuff today, but which should also act as a starting point for your own creativity and experiments.

What are people saying?

This book is for CSS haters, people frustrated with CSS, and those making the transition to CSS-based design — meryl.net

Rachel Andrew can guide me through the web jungles any day. This is a great book that can be put to use immediately by those of us who have been around awhile but are not afraid to learn something new every day — macCompanion

All in all, it’s a solid, professional no-B.S. way for someone with a code-oriented mind to get them up to speed, satisfactorily and quickly; a motivated reader could be churning out standards-compliant, bandwidth-friendly sites after a few hour’s experimentation — Slashdot

If you hate CSS, this book is for you. By removing one stumbling block at a time, it will guide you gently to a more pleasant relationship with CSS. You may find that instead of hating CSS, you will actually fall in love again — Digital Web Magazine

All in all, congratulations to Rachel on a very competent book, well written and with clear, concise examples. I was particularly impressed by the book’s ‘pace’ which serves to engage and interest before diving into more complex examples — Malarky

As far as downsides go, I’m drawing a blank. I don’t think this one is going to make it to my book shelf - it’s staying right next to my Mac — MacMerc.com
