I really like the different projects in it. It gave me lots of ideas as to how to make my websites/tools look even better. I learned a lot. I do wish that the browsers would all support the same properties so we don't have to add extra code to accommodate each one.

This is a great primer for those who are already familiar with CSS, and want to learn about the newest features of CSS3. It has a good array of projects to present new declarations and parameters, and is quite well-written. As a result, it manages to do two things very very well:
1) It explains the basics of what's new in ways that can be easily understood for someone who just wants to get up to speed on CSS3's new features, and
2) Develops its example projects to levels of complexity to satisfy a dedicated CSS enthusiast's need to experiment with equally complex undertakings.
As another reviewer commented, this is not a general primer for someone unfamiliar with CSS, but merely for those ready to make the jump to CSS3, which is still a moving target. BTW, the book also handles cross-browser issues, particular for those features which are still experimental very well. Also, you should be at least reasonably skilled in basic Javascript to understand some of the more complex issues, but I'd say this true if you want to use CSS3 anyway. Having a knowledge of other back-end technologies, e.g., SASS, is helpful too.
All in all, a great book that really met my needs. To put that in perspective, I'm primarily a back-end developer in category #1 above.
