Textbook. I hope this thing will teach me web publishing and in literally one hour a day, because I can't imagine it's that exciting a book.

Update: Okay, this book is actually really good. I read. I understand. Then I do. I don't know if I could ask for more from an instructional book.

Fantastic book. Even if you already know HTML, at least past the beginners stage, because it covers in more or less depth, everything else involved in webdesign and webpublishing it becomes a terrific starting book if you want to give more structure to what you are learning in that area. It goes in quite some detail in the HTML and CSS parts and it gives a great introduction to other things like Javascript, Php, CGI and CMS.

Fantastic book for either beginners or anyone past the beginners stage and in need of seeing the big picture and giving some structure to what you are learning in that area.

So far so good. I am reading this for my class. Figured it qualified to go on my reading list. I actually really like the layout, its an easy read and not set up like a normal textbook, which I like!

I never really read the WHOLE thing. However, the parts that I did read - I liked. I liked the layout. It was pretty easy to follow. Good book for those wanting to learn HTML

Great WW II Military leader. He was the head of the Air Force when I served and made it the efficient machine that it became. Unfortunately he, like many of his contempories didn't understand modern warfare and the role of the US Military in the post WW II world.
