Review:Ask any burgeoning Web-page author what they want in an HTML guide, and the list would go something like this: concise, informative, plenty of examples, a little bit of fun without being too cute. Elizabeth Castro's HTML for the World Wide Web is that dream guide to learning this Web language. Unlike other books that lumber along feeding the reader arcane details, Castro's book keeps to the basics. You'll still learn everything you need to create a great site (where to start off, how to nest tables, how to add in video), but you won't feel overwhelmed by the process. The book is clearly referenced and, in typically concise Peachpit Press style, full of deceptively simple bullet lists of things to do. On the other side of the split page are ...

Review:Mac OS X Advanced Visual QuickPro Guide shows how to use Mac OS X--and shows is the correct word, because the layout leans heavily on illustrations to communicate concepts and procedures to readers. After locating in the index the subject that interests you, you'll find that it's explained with a step-by-step procedure that appears next to (and makes frequent reference to) a series of adjacent illustrations. Maria Langer, a respected authority on Mac matters, shows how to do many tasks that will interest people who use Mac OS X in the home or office.Truth be told, the word Visual figures in this book's title for a reason. The reason is that the format was developed to illustrate how to get things done with graphical user interfaces (GUIs), ...
