[Paul · Rating 4 out of 5]

I'll admit: four stars is probably a very generous rating for this book. However, having received this while in high school as a budding web designer, I have a great fondness for this dog-eared book. At the time it provoked curiosity and imagination – now it stands as a record of what the edges of web design looked like in 2000.

[Paolo · Rating 3 out of 5]

Primo e (a quanto mi risulta, tuttora) unico tentativo di sistematizzazione delle tendenze del web design.
