, 16 Feb 2012 "I like the way the book is written - casual enough to keep your attention.

, 23 Jan 2012 "New to web technology so trying my hand from design to development and security to know where to specialise. This book showed me that web design is more than just HTMLing CSSing or Photoshoping. Introduced me to the basic concept of design. How color speaks, typo beautifies etc. Nice one by Jason B."
, 21 Dec 2011 "For a newbie, it's all too easy to get bogged down in the technologies of web design. This book pulls you back out of the mire, and offers a fantastic overview of the big picture again: what's expected, possible and desirable in a modern website.
"Perhaps others' mileage may vary, but I understand the CSS box model much better, now that I know _why_ I need to understand it."
, 29 Nov 2011 "the marketing hype is big, but the content is a bit standard."
, 9 Nov 2011 "From a guy with little design experience I found the book extremely helpful. I will be contracting out a redesign of my company's website. This book really helped me articulate the look and feel I am looking for on the new site."
, 22 Oct 2011 "Excellent read!
"I design & develop websites for a living (amongst other IT things). I only needed to learn one 'new' idea or method and I would have paid for the book. I learnt heaps!
"The book was a great refresher and gave me a new outlook on a number of aspects of design.
"Very pleased with my purchase and Sitepoint continues to meet my expectations.
"Regards,
"Ray"
