Instruction from an acclaimed master
I'm not just rating the book, but also the learn.shayhowe.com support site. Shay offers the gift of great instruction on line with not a penny charged. It was so perfect, and helpful to me, I bought the book in support of Shay's generosity. It turns out the book let me do the reading of each chapter and gave me a little time away from the monitor and keyboard. Then I would return to the online content to apply and practice what I was learning.Shay is clearly an expert in his field of web design and development and gives the gift of instruction through many outlets and venues including local (to Shay) in-person training. If you are new to web dev like me or just wanting to class up your act I don't think you'll be disappointed with this book or the HTML & CSS online content, including a series of advanced lessons.

Great read
As a complete beginner this book will not teach you how to code.

A good book
This book explains front-end web design in an easy to understand way. It also delves into some of the best practices for web design. Overall it was a good book for getting a foothold in the subject matter without going too deep.

Good for SharePoint designers too
The SharePoint design templates and webparts provide a graphical wrapper over CSS and HTML. Understanding, the underlying code is very helpful to know when wanting to go beyond the default choices Microsoft provides. SharePoint pages should not be edited directly with inline style; however, SharePoint anticipates changes by providing an external custom CCS style sheet for designers to use. I bought this book to learn how to apply styles to my SharePoint sites in a professional manner.

A great starting point for Developers
He really does a great job walking you from the super basics to a fully functioning website. I like this better than the other because he then challenges you and asks you questions to ensure you are comprehending the material that he is presenting vs. just being like "this is how we make text blue, cool? Okay, let's move on"Truly a great book for those starting out in the world of programming

Great book! Easy to read and very good points ...
Great book! Easy to read and very good points are made throughout. Can be challenging at times because you need to figure out how to code on your own, but isn't that how you learn? Source codes can be found on the website if you are having trouble!

For both Beginners & For Reference
While primarily organized for beginners (and does a great job of teaching HTML & CSS), there isn't any reason why not to use this as a good reference too.
