An excellent overview on the current state of CSS3. The book focuses on the CSS3 features that are supported by most up-to-date browsers today and how to use them in a inessential way – ensuring not to break anything for older browsers.I'd consider myself of intermediate to advanced understanding of CSS and had no problem understanding everything in the book though I had never used CSS3 prior to reading this. Those who are beginners might try [b:Zen of CSS Design 565 The Zen of CSS Design Visual Enlightenment for the Web (Voices That Matter) Dave Shea http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1157058871s/565.jpg 4821] followed by [b:CSS Mastery 563 CSS Mastery Advanced Web Standards Solutions Andy Budd http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1157058871s/563.jpg 4819].
LOVED LOVED LOVED this book. I've recently started updating my mad CSS skillz by finally starting to implement some CSS3 into my projects. It's nice to see the neat little things you can use CSS3 for now and how to make your code degrade gracefully for those using browsers not up to the latest standards (IE, I'm looking at you). I've never been disappointed by Dan Cederholm's books and this one's no exception.
