I bought this book because I'm website building and I needed something to fill in all the info gaps. This book covers many topics well. I'm only beginning to tap its resources. The few pages on how to go about putting ads into your site more than makes up for the price of the book, even though I paid in-store full cost price for it!
Though I am finding the info is geared more towards PCs, not so much towards Macs.
