Customer Reviews

Principles of Web Design

Clearly written/explained for the beginner or for an easy-to- follow review of HTML. Pages are well laid out and easy to read. It's important to me to be able to read the text while sitting in front of the monitor, therefore a book should be legible at "lap height". My only complaint is that "figure" examples should printed on the same page as the text explaining them.

A Very Useful Resource, User Friendly

This was one of the better web design books that I have read. It ranks even above HTML Goodies web design books. From an experienced web designer I recommend this book greatly.
