If you read the editorial review, terms like “all experience levels”, “latest technologies”, and “latest effects” are used or implied throughout. The book, however, covers only what a beginner would have learned in the first month from his/her first HTML/Javascript book. Only the most minimal explanation is given for anything. Instead, you’re constantly told to “take the tutorial at . . . “- Note to author: if you write a book, include some content. Readers don’t want to pay [$] for a printed list of online tutorials. In short, there are no ‘top design experts’ that had any input into this book in 2002 (the pub. date). Maybe frames and nested tables were ‘cutting edge’ in 1997, but they’re old news in 2002, and are far from what design experts would be talking about today. If you’re a beginner looking to get up to speed on a few basic design tricks, there are better, more explanatory books that you can find with a basic search. If you have any experience at all in the field, there will be nothing in here you didn’t master long ago. I had to rate this at 1 star because even if the book was misrepresented against the author’s wishes (maybe she didn’t mean to have it portrayed as an advanced book), it doesn’t even do a good job of explaining the basics (instead referring you online as mentioned above). Sorry to be so harsh, but this book is not worth the high quality stock it’s printed on. Now excuse me- I have to go return this and get something helpful. . .
