Summary: I was hoping for more...
Comment: This is a book written as an introductory text, and thus, it contains many words in bold. If you are looking for more than bold words like "Home page", "Frame", "Icon", or "Applet", then you may wish to consider a different text.

Most importantly, the examples of good site design given by this text are bad... which makes it hard to take some of its design principles seriously. This book is for those who want to talk about web design, not do it.

This book does provide a good start for someone totally new to the "I-way" (It hurts me to type that...) as it dose deal with the basics. However, I just couldn't help but feel that most of the text was giving new, bold names (I'm talking typeface here), to concepts with which most are already familiar.

Rating: 4
Summary: Very good if taken with a UML/SAD textbook
Comment: The authors of this book lead you progressively through the development of a commercially successful e-sales site that they themselves were involved in. During this, you progress methodically through the general theory and development that justify their web design.

The strength of this book lies in its range of topics and the chapters on cross-linking pages using 'information domains'. However, their documentation of a genuine commercial web site for small-medium companies has not been matched for conciseness (in my experience, please inform if wrong).

I read this book in an afternoon. This doesn't mean that the book is lightweight, just that it is well-written and gets to the point. Another bonus: this book is refreshingly free of padding; i.e. old NewYorker/Dilbert cartoons, references, glossaries, psycho-babble and large margins 'for your own notes'.
