HTML and CSS Web Standards Solutions: A Web Standardistas' ApproachPaperback, 17 December 2008

Why did we choose to write this book? We're both extremely busy--lecturing bachelor's degree and master's degree interactive design students, maintaining our own practice wo- ing for clients, and furthering our established careers as artists exhibiting internationally--so the idea of a "how to" book for would-be web designers wasn't arrived at lightly. That said, we felt the time was right for this sort of book. There are a lot of excellent books that we point our students toward: Dan Cederholm's inspiring Web Standards Solutions; Paul Haine's meticulous HTML Mastery; and Andy Budd, Cameron Moll, and Simon Collison's indispensable CSS Mastery, to name but a few. All are fantastic books and we urge our s- dents to buy every one; however, none of them seemed to cover everything our students needed to embark on a well-grounded, web standards-based approach in one package: namely, a solid foundation in well-structured XHTML coupled with a comprehensive int- duction to CSS. Cue Web Standardistas.
