Review 1 Eric A.Meyer offers a very educational book on web design that provides a solid foundation on CSS. It contains many exercises on web design with files that are included in the CD-ROM. The screen shots are in colour. The main CSS2 properties are grouped in a table in the appendix. A very good reference book on web design. (Posted by NerdX)

Review 2 A very good book for beginners in web design. The pros can probably also find useful information, but beginners will find a simple approach, based on specific cases, and will gradually progress in their understanding of CSS. The preface of the book also presents the content as designed for web design beginners. The style of Eric A.Meyer is a pleasure to read, mostly serious with a touch of humour from time to time.
