Not Just Another Dusty Tome  - or

Useful CSS Reference Book

category: CSS

There's a lot of material available on the internet to turn to when you're having problems with CSS. It can even be discouraging to see how much material there is. Would people post so many questions and answers if the stuff usually worked reliably? Probably not.
One much loved resource in my neck of the woods is Cascading Style Sheets: Separating Content from Presentation by Briggs et al. The book is published by Friends of Ed, a publishing imprint with many good titles to its credit. This book's greatest quality is not being too long; it's just shy of 400 pages, a tiny book in the computer reference world. It's written in decent English, and its multiple authors provide clear explanations of many CSS realities and work-arounds.
