Summary: A good romp
Review: What better way to learn & appreciate good site design than by looking at what is faulty/sucks? The writers are opinionated as hell, but that's part of the fun in reading this book. It's slick, comes with a CD-Rom and offers useful stuff for your own site. But if you're looking for something less "humorous", the better choice would be Desiging Web Usability, by Jakob Nielson.

Summary: Clarity through Hilarity
Review: You are going out and buying web books the way you used to buy Matchbox Cars or Barbie Doll outfits. Stop it! Go get this book. It's like these guys actually do have enough experience to know what goes wrong. Not like all those books that make you feel like if you don't learn Perl, CGI, Javascript, DHTML, etc., etc., you will fail in life and probably never have sex again. They actually tell you a lot of stuff you DON'T need to know which is really worth the price of the book. Get the damn book if you want to be a better web designer, programmer, or even a better surfer! Harry Kelley VP, Director of Graphic Services Wunderman Cato Johnson, NYC
