This book is NOT easy to read. CSS with its boxes, positioning, floating, ... etc is not easy material, and this book fails to clearly describe the algorithms involved. There is no good "narrative": I found myself paging up and down all the time because the authors were referring to stuff that was explained elsewhere. And few books that I have, have required so many annotations to explain the imprecise phrases in the text, often giving me the feel that I was solving a crossword puzzle. Yes: there is a lot of data in this book. No: it's not an easy read. |

I found the same thing it was very hard to read. That lack of examples also was terrible. It is one thing to see a rule, but to actually have a css and html example and run it makes the light go on sometimes.
